… crab apples earlier in the summer …
… which start off a lovely rosy colour but turn yellow as they ripen….
… became this.
How yellow apples can become this beautiful ruby jelly is a mystery. Can’t wait to sample it.
The variety is malus golden hornet. I planted it 8 years ago when it was nothing more than a twig about 5 ft tall. It never fails to delight, always laden with blossom every spring and apples every autumn.
