Preston’s Red Flesh

Preston’s Red Flesh red-fleshed apple tree produces apples that are fully red inside.

The flavour balance leans towards acidity, making it a good choice for those who enjoy tart apples. Its main quality is its strong red fruit aroma, noticeable from the first bite.

The apples are picked around mid-September and can keep for a few months.

Preston’s Red Flesh is generally quite resistant, with no particular disease sensitivity noted apart from possible powdery mildew in some conditions.

Flowering is mid-season. It pollinates well with Cabarette and Colapuis.

Preston’s Red Flesh is a rare apple tree, although it is one of the better-known red-fleshed apples among private growers.

On this variety, the foliage is green and the fruit develops its colour as it reaches maturity.
