Hello,

   Does anyone have any experience growing either one of the following apples?

 

1. Kent (Malling Kent)(Cox Orange Pippin X Jonathan cross) Described as medium size conical fruit with light red skin and smooth russet radiations from the stem end. Crisp white flesh that is rich with lots of sugar and acidity, quite aromatic.

2. Suntan (Cox Orange Pippin X Court Pendu Plat cross) Described as medium-large size with gold-yellow skin flushed and striped orange-red. Yellowish-cream flesh that is sweet-sharp, juicy, rich, robustly aromatic, and has very good flavor.

 

Thanks,
