          Never apologise for being a smart a*se, sort of defeats the purpose.

                James Grieve, sorry was in a hurry. This apple is described as having yellow skin with a red flush and crimson stripes.

                    Just been to the local garden centre where none of the pictures of the apple fruit on the cards at the bottom tallied with the actual fruit that was hanging on the trees in the pots, even though they had the same name on the tags!

                            if it was from a normal garden centre it will only be one of about 4 or 5 varieties, trouble is they all look the same ! Have a look for Laxtons Supeb as thats one of the common ones.

                              Sorry, I don't know what kind they are but not greensleeves. If you're disappointed with the apple, or because you were depending on it for pollination, why not take one and the label, to the dealer you bought it from. I'm sure a reputable dealer will be happy to come to a fair arrangement with you.

                              From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.
