apple 'Greensleeves'

'Greensleeves' is a dessert cultivar in pollination group 3. It is a very precocious cultivar with heavy, regular crops of pale green, turning pale yellow, skinned apples with a crisp flesh that becomes sweeter. Suitable for container cultivation. The blossom has some frost resistance and fruit needs thinning to become a good size. It has a short season of use from late September to October; once picked the flavour can deteriorate in storage
