The are several choice cooking apple varieties. Below are some of the delicious cooking apple.
Duke of Devonshire is a very ,late keeping dessert apple of excellent flavour. Juicy, sweet and aromatic. Compost grown, the apples are never too dry. Rather like a flat Cox, with yellowy skin and brownish flush. Crops well and stores well. Partially self-sterile and highly resistant to scab. Season Feb.-May.
Ed ward VII is a very late flowerer, so useful where there are spring frosts. Compact grower. Easy spur-bearer. Nice round to oblong, dark green apples. Excellent flavour when cooked. Crawley Beauty is the best pollinator. Scab resistant. Season Jan.-April. Egremont Russet makes a small upright heavy cropping hardy tree. Extremely beautiful when in flower, good pollinator for Cox. A lovely flat russet apple. Produces fruit spurs freely. Resistant to scab. Season Oct.-Dec.
Crawley Beauty have flowers so late, usually late May or early June, and so is not subject to spring frosts. Needs a pollinator like Edward VII. Apples round, somewhat flattened. Green with red flush and stripes on one side. Resistant to scab. Season Dec.-Mar.
Crimson Cox is a very similar to Cox's Orange Pippin, though in my orchard the flavour is intensified. All the apples are bright red.
D'arcy Spice is a delicious Essex apple of excellent flavour. Roundish, flattened, of a yellow colour covered with brownish russet. Not easy to grow and only a medium cropper. The fruit tree bears fruit very late as well as being sweet, juicy and aromatic. Fairly resistant to scab. Season Mar.-May.
