Falstaff - Eating Apple
Falstaff is a modern apple, developed in Kent from a cross first made in the 1960's. It is a very attractive apple, of a good size and with a red flush on a golden background. In terms of flavour it has inherited all the quality of one of its parents, James Grieve (and is also therefore a good juicer). The tree is a heavy cropper and although it benefits from a pollinator, it is partly self-fertile.

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.
