GardenAction recommends the James Grieve apple tree for two reasons - it's particularly suitable for cooler areas (apples may drop prematurely in warmer areas), and it also has a very refreshing taste.

No real problems with diseases, and particularly easy to maintain. Handle the fruit with care when picked because James Grieve bruises easily.
