Ashmead’s Kernel is about 300 years old! It has yellow flesh which is crisp and has an excellent flavour. It is scab resistant and the fruit stores well. Ashmead’s Kernel is not recommended for exposed north facing gardens as this will affect the cropping, which overall is light and erratic. The skin is yellow-green which is covered with mid brown russet. Picking time is mid October.
