Apple ‘Sir Isaac Newton’
Grow a piece of history in your garden! This tree has been propagated from (and comes with certification) the original tree associated with Sir Isaac Newton’s observations on gravity which stood in the garden of his home, Woolsthorpe Manor, near Grantham. The variety is known as the ‘Flower of Kent’, and produces hefty cooking apples with an old-fashioned shape. The green skin flushes red where the sun shines on it and the fruit cooks to a soft purée with a refined, sweet flavour. ‘Flower of Kent’ is not self fertile so it is best grown with another variety nearby to ensure good pollination.
