An old English apple variety, first introduced in Derbyshire in the 19th Century, Newton Wonder (Malus domestica 'Newton Wonder') is a very late keeping apple variety.  Its apples are an appealing yellow and scarlet colour and of a large size.  They cook to make a juicy, mild purée.  Later in season it makes a delicious fruity eating apple. Also good in salads.

Self-fertile/Not self-fertile: This apple is not self-fertile and requires another apple to act as a pollination partner. 

This apple is in flowering period is C5. 

How to chose a suitable pollination partner:

To make it easy to match this apple with a suitable pollination partner we have used a series of codes, which are C1, C2, C3, C4 and C5 and relate to flowering periods.  Every apple variety we sell will have one of these codes. 

The code we have given this apple tree means that you need to find another apple with the same code or one less or one more, so for example if the apple is code C5, then another apple variety with code C4 would be necessary to act as a reliable pollination partner.

This variety of apple tree is supplied in a 12 litre container, which means that the tree can be planted any time of the year and with better results than either bare-root or rootballed trees.

Available on the following rootstock:
