Apple 'Yarlington Mill'

Apple 'Yarlington Mill'

Cultivar & Origin

Yarlington Mill is a traditional bittersweet cider apple from Somerset, England. Its juice contributes tannin and body to cider blends rather than the sharp acidity supplied by bittersharp varieties. The autumn crop is primarily intended for pressing. Our trees are grafted on M111 rootstock, with fruit thinning useful when crops are heavy.

Pourquoi nous le cultivons

Yarlington Mill brings a traditional bittersweet component to home cider blends. It suits growers who want to turn an orchard harvest into a useful stored drink.

Comment pousse la plante

Grafted on M111, a vigorous semi-dwarf rootstock that produces roughly 70–80% of a standard tree’s size. Develop a strong central framework, keep branches well spaced and prune for light and harvest access. Thin heavy crops to support fruit size and more regular bearing.

Taille de la plante

Taille à maturité Approximately 15–25 ft tall and wide, depending on site and pruning.

Informations complémentaires

Yarlington Mill comes from Somerset’s cider tradition in England. Cider orchards can use mechanical shaking and ground collection for fruit destined for pressing.

Yarlington Mill

An apple tree brings a familiar rhythm to a homestead: spring blossom, a growing summer crop and fruit to gather as the season turns. Fresh apples, baking, sauce and cider all have a place in the harvest. We love a mixed orchard where different varieties stretch the season and offer different flavours, with enough fruit left over to share or put away for winter.
