Introduced in 1907, the fruit from Organic Lord Lambourne Apple Trees is a real English classic; the attractive flushed and striped red finish over a green/yellow base is matched by the sweet, juicy and refreshing taste and crops are regularly heavy.
We're supplying this popular earlyish dessert apple variety in moderately vigorous and semi-dwarfing forms and Organic Lord Lambourne Apple Trees are the choice for small gardens because of their compact growth. The organic apple trees are supplied as maidens making them ideal for espalier and cordon training, and they also flourish in bush tree form too; expect to start picking your Organic Lord Lambourne Apples in late September and with a bit of care - namely a dark, frost free, ventilated location - you can store them until November.

Six of the Best
'Lord Lambourne' is a well known, old favourite. It's one of the best flavoured mid-season apples you can buy. Juicy, sweet and aromatic, but with a nice 'bite'. This is one to go for if you like a supermarket 'Braeburn' only much better! Compact in growth with frost-resistant blossome and a heavy cropper, no wonder it has stood the test of time. - Fruit Expert, David Patch
