Malus domestica 'Egremont Russet' is a deciduous, apple tree with ovate, green leaves, and fragrant, pale pink flowers blooming in late spring and summer. Rough-skinned, dull yellow, flushed red, apples with crisp, firm flesh and sweet, nutty flavour are ready for harvesting in October and can be stored until December. Malus domestica 'Egremont Russet' grows best in neutral, moderately fertile, consistently moist, but well-drained soils. It thrives in full sun and best crop is achieved in full sun, but it is tolerant of partial shade. It grows best in areas with cold winter and moderate summer temperatures, and medium to high humidity. Needs to be sheltered form harsh winter winds. Requires regular pruning and may need fruit thinning. Pollination group 2. 'Egremont Russet' Apple is a nice addition to any informal, cottage, and urban garden. It is mostly grown for its delicious fruit with characteristic nutty flavour. It produces good, regular crops. Suitable for growing in containers.

M26 is a semi-dwarfing rootstock (smaller than MM106) used for apple trees, particularly in orchards and home gardens. It produces trees 10-12 feet in height, making them easier to manage and harvest. M26 ensures early fruit production, good anchorage, and medium vigor. However, it requires staking during early years and is moderately susceptible to fire blight.
