Apple Tree - Pomeroy of Somerset

Apple Tree - Pomeroy of Somerset

Pomeroy apples were famous for their flavour in the 19th century. Hogg recorded three Pomeroys - in Somerset, Lancashire and Herefordshire/Worcestershire - in 1851. They're very old apples; he thought they might have been Norman, which makes sense of the French name ("king's apple"). Pomeroy of Somerset has attractive large apples, and makes for a handsome tree. It's unusual in these parts for not being a cider apple.

See our section on Pollination Groups to help you select your apple trees.

The rootstock for our dessert, or eating apple trees, is the most vigorous available - M106 and M25. M25 rootstock will produce the standard trees of a traditional orchard, which will grow over 4.5m, and M106 3 to 4m. Please refer to our size guide for details.

All our Pomeroy of Somerset apple trees are bare root, so they are only available between November and April. During lifting season, there will be a delay between placing the order and dispatching due to pressure of orders, which are dealt with in date sequence, and the weather. Orders taken from June-October will be confirmed in late October/ early November after a nursery stock take, for dispatch from November. Please consult our planting and care guide on receipt of your order.
