Our Variety Assessment

Its strengths, growing requirements and the conditions in which it performs best.

Lanscailler produces large heritage apples that can be eaten fresh in September but are particularly valuable for cooking and juice. The tree is very hardy, productive and well suited to traditional standard orchards, although it can be slow to begin cropping. As a triploid and poor pollinator, it should be planted with two other compatible flowering varieties nearby.
