Discovery

The Discovery Apple is an early season dessert apple. One of its parents Worcester Pearmain, with the pollinator thought to possibly be Beauty of Bath. The fruits are typically similar in appearance to its parent 'Worcester Pearmain', being small-medium in size, with small patches of yellow and largely flushed with crimson, sometimes completely covering the fruit, but tend to be slightly flatter. The flesh (and juice) of some fruit may be pinkish. The tree is a mid-season flowering variety; as with the supposed pollinator 'Beauty of Bath', the fruits mature quickly, by August. Unlike many early apples, the fruits remain on the tree long enough to ensure ripening. The juice is a good early season first taste of Autumn.   Sweetness chart 3.5
