Lane's Prince Albert

Sale price£24.00

A well keeping cooking apple.

Shiny green flushed orange red, with a greenish white flesh. Soft and very juicy, keeps it shape well when cooked. A bit of sugar will enhance its rich, tangy flavour.

A reliable cropper. Stores well and will be sweet enough to eat by March.

Believed to have been raised by Quaker, Thomas Squire, Berkhamstead, around 1840. First named Victoria and Albert on the occasion of their visit to Berkhamstead to change horses at the King's Arms, later renamed in 1857 when introduced by grower John Lane.

The original tree remained in place until 1958, when the house and garden were removed to make way for a new building.

What will my trees be like when they arrive?

Our trees are supplied as bare root trees in the dormant season (usually December - March).

  • 1 year old "maiden" trees will usually arrive as a single, flexible stem (or some varieties will also have some side-shoots). Our 1 year-old trees are at least 90cm tall and can be up to 150cm (3ft - 5ft).
  • Our older trees are 2 or 3 years old, usually have some branching and may have some fruit buds. They are between generally 110cm and 150cm (4ft - 5ft).

Trees that have grown over 150cm will be pruned to a bud at the top to fit into the packaging.

A lovely tree

Lanes Prince Albert is in my opinion often overlooked so I am looking forward to the lovely apples to come.
