Red Falstaff (Malus domestica 'Red Falstaff') was introduced in 1983.  It is a wonderful eating apple with a fruity well balanced flavour, that is crisp and juicy.  Of key importance for some areas of the United Kingdom is its frost resistance and being self fertile menas only one apple tree is required for a relaible crop of apples.  One of the heaviest yielding varieties we are able to offer, Red Falstaff may be easily stored over the winter period.  We highly recommend this variety.
