Laxton's Superb Desert Apple

Laxton's Superb is a very tasty Victorian eating apple which crops reliably. It keeps well, lasting to February if stored correctly. It produces attractive apples with a green background and 50% or so covering with a dull red flush. Laxton's Superb is self-fertile but produces a more reliable crop where other varieties of apple tree are nearby.

If you want to grow an old fashioned apple tree with an appealing but distinctive taste then consider Laxton's Superb. Disease resistance is good for an apple tree of this vintage with scab only being a problem on apples from the lower part of the tree.
