These are the first of the meninas rosas, grown from pips from Austin's favourite apple, the Pink Lady. I had to get him to bond with the idea of growing food in the garden, so when he declared nearly eight years ago that the only apples worth eating were pink ladies, I let him buy some then we ceremoniously saved the seeds and planted them. And this is the first fruit to be grown from those seeds!

They are very much redder than their mommy, so we might have to think of a new name for this particular tree. !



Apple grown from seed qualify as pippins, so consider using that in the name.
