Katy apple tree

Has anyone got one?

She wanted an apple tree for her garden and I found one with her name

but is it a good'un for the clay soil that she has in her North Kent garden?

There are lots of other apples around, so don't think pollination will be a problem.

I have inherited one, that is quite young, and it had about half a dozen red apples this year. It is an early apple, and the apples are nice and crunchy.

Forgot to say that we have clay soil and the tree is healthy!

Nice sweet apple, can be used for cider making. Small fruit, but sweet.

We have one and its for the chop, had one apple get to full size in over five years it must be now.

Sour, horrible apples. Sorry a thumbs down for us. Firewood

Thatchers make cider called Katy. 7.4% absolutely stunning on a warm evening

My god-daughter is called Katie and they have one in their (London clay) garden. It's loaded with apples each year - small and really sweet. Not my thing for eating fresh, but the dehydrated apple rings are wonderful.

Thank you - it's now ordered
