An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.
Originated in Yorkshire, England around 1700 and long considered the classic "upscale" English dessert apple. Mid-sized, bright orange, red-blushed fruit has a pleasant aroma and a rich, refined flavour. The fine-grained flesh is hard, crisp and extremely sugary. One of the best for eating, cooking and cider. It is a triploid so be sure to have several other varieties for cross pollination.
