You can't get Bramley apples in France, they cook with eating apples. Baked apple, crumble and apple pie just aren't the same without Bramley's so we really miss them. The French also seem to like apples that are less sharp and crisp than we like, we also ordered some other trees. Then as there was still room in the box we ordered the other trees too. Of course we can get those here but it worked out a bit cheaper anyway.
They are mostly just sticks at the moment, or sticks with a few little branches. They need to get growing if they are going to have any fruit.
We have been super keen and got the 4 apples planted already. Luckily the ground is quite soft at the moment as that is a lot of hole digging.
