Green and Sour Apples - Overview
The apples in this section sometimes have a flush but no stripes. They are all cookers with a sharp acid taste, they mostly cook into a fluff or puree.
However, they all colour up in some way as they ripen and sometimes colour quite early in the season in a hot summer or when exposed to the sun.
If you have checked Yellow apples and drawn a blank check out this section as Early Victoria and Lord Grosvenor ripen to a clear bright yellow. I have followed received wisdom in Sanders and Bultitude by including them here although Early Victoria ripens to yellow by August here in the Isle of Wight.
Arthur Turner is a plain, pale yellow green early in the season but can be found in the Yellow section.
You can see a photo gallery of all of the green and sour apples here
Apples that colour up or develop stripes later in the season can be plain green early in the year
