Blenheim Orange was found at Old Woodstock in Oxfordshire in England in 1740.
A dual-purpose heirloom apple that can be used as a cooker early in the season and as an eater later on.
The apple itself has a greenish-yellow to orange skin that can be streaked with red.
It has a slight nutty flavour and is an excellent cooker although it does not hold its shape and will produce a fluffy puree.
Blenheim Orange is a triploid variety and a very vigorous tree that can be slow to produce but will fruit heavily once established. Biennial Bearer.
