Apple Howgate Wonder
A unusual dual purpose apple, Howgate Wonder is both eater and cooker (actually it produces good juice as well). For the exhibitionists among you, it can also grow very large indeed - it holds the British record at 3lbs 11ozs. A late cropper, it keeps extremely well and can be used until well into the new year. Howgate Wonder fruits well even in difficult areas. Use October - February.

The planting hole for fruit trees should be 1m across and 40cms deep. If necessary, the soil can be improved with a little well rotted compost or manure. Stake the tree with a 50mm (2") diameter tree stake, and secure it with a buckle and strap tree tie within 50-60 cms of the ground. Weeds and grass should be kept away from the trunk by weeding, spraying or using a mulch mat. For further information, take a look at our Tree Planting Guide.
