🔍 When is it ripe?
Apple (Malus): Background skin colour shifts from green toward yellow; seeds turn brown when ripe. Fruit separates from the spur with a gentle upward twist. Aroma develops near the base. Wild Malus fruit is often small and tart — excellent for cider and jelly.
Crabapple: Small apples ripen from green to red, yellow, or orange by variety. Very tart raw but excellent for jelly and cider. Ripe when the colour is fully developed and the fruit lifts off with a gentle twist.
This is an area of trees and bushes crisscrossed by tracks. 1 x Apple on the side of Pearce Way and at least 4 Crab apple trees in the area. One Crab in particular is very heavy on tannins which is ideal for Cider making (Hard cider in the US).
