Hey there!

As I've already said on here, I'm not greenfingered, but, I love my apple tree. What kind is it though? Can you tell from piccies? Two friends have ate apples from it and not died so....

Any ideas?

They are ok sizewise doll, don't worry but don't know what they are! There is a woman up here called Ava who runs a garden centre that might know though.............

I've got a cox pippin and a braeburn so I'll check the colour of my blossom tomorrow and see if any are as red as yours. Maybe you need to post again when the fruit is on the tree as may help people more. I'm pretty useless, love gardening and have plenty fruit trees but really haven't got a clue what I'm doing and I write up the stem of all of mine on the bark what type of tree they are just in case the label comes off.

I don't think they are big enough to be cooking apples. Would be great if they were because then they'd get used!

Aww what a great tree

Wish mine flowered like that and produced fruit - mmm but then mine are only bout 5 years old and we grew them from seeds from the apples the kids ate

My cox pippin hasn't got any blossom on yet but my braeburn has. The blossom is a darker pink when closed but opened its a light pink.
