Description

One of the oldest known varieties in the world, and it is not improbable that its origins go as far back as ancient Rome. This variety has a long list of virtues - the fruit is very crisp with a lovely slightly acidic flavour and is borne freely; it is very hardy and very late to flower (thus escaping the frosts, and hence one synonym of the Wise Apple); and growth is compact making it suitable for the smaller garden or even pot culture. Court Pendu Plat = short, hanging, and flat (Refers to the fruit).
