Apple 'James Grieve' is a traditional and versatile apple variety that has been grown in the UK since the late 19th century. It is prized for its dual-purpose nature, being excellent both as an eating apple and a cooking apple. Known for its crisp, juicy flesh and balanced flavor, it is one of the best heritage apples in the UK.

Fruit Appearance:

  • Size and Shape: Medium to large-sized apples, with a slightly flattened or round shape.
  • Color: The skin is greenish-yellow with red or orange streaks and blushes, giving it a striking two-tone appearance. Some apples may be more red, depending on sun exposure.
  • Flesh: Pale cream-colored, soft, juicy, and tender. The texture is crisp early in the season and becomes softer as the fruit matures.

Taste:

  • Flavor: The flavor is well-balanced, with a refreshing mix of sweetness and acidity. When freshly picked, it has a crisp texture with a sharp, tangy taste, making it a great early-season eater. As it matures, it softens and becomes sweeter, making it ideal for culinary use as well.
  • Texture: Early in the season, it has a firm, crisp texture but softens as the apple ripens, which is desirable for certain culinary applications.

     

  • Harvest Time:
    • Season: 'James Grieve' is an early to mid-season apple, typically harvested in late August to September in the UK. It is best eaten fresh soon after picking, though it can be used for cooking for a few weeks after harvest.
  • Pollination:
    • Pollination Group: 'James Grieve' is in Pollination Group 3, meaning it flowers in mid-season. It requires a pollination partner from the same or a nearby group (Groups 2, 3, or 4), such as Discovery, Egremont Russet, or Cox's Orange Pippin.
    • Self-fertility: Partially self-fertile, but planting with a compatible pollinator will improve fruit set and yield.
