This variety of apple was a favourite of mine when a child – my dad had it in his orchard.

We have a James Grieve in our garden but it’s always a race between us and the starlings as to who gets the most fruit! It’s a lovely apple but needs to be eaten fresh and doesn’t travel because it bruises easily – that’s why you won’t see if for sale in the shops. Enjoy your tree, Annet.

Oh, I’m glad it’s a tasy apple, I’ll keep and I eye out for those birds! Do you have more than one apple tree (for pollination purposes)?

We’ve actually got five Bramley (cooking) apple trees in our garden and only the one James Grieve, but we do have a lot of very busy bees and neighbours with apple trees in their gardens. It seems to work ;-)
