The seek for the Leicestershire St. Cecilia apple continues. On 18 Feb, scions were collected from three old bushes within the St. Joseph's area, near the Abbey. These have now been grafted. We await with curiosity (in three years' time) the fruit on the brand new trees. St. Cecilia is a lesser-identified apple bred by Friar Ailred McPike, in the 1940s, on the Abbey. Better recognized is the St. Ailred apple, which is out there from us and from a few nurseries; both apples had been bred from James Grieve x Ellison's Orange, however the last recognized tree of St. Cecilia has disappeared. Judging by the dad and mom, it would probably be a James Grieve-kind apple, perhaps with a hint of anise in its flavour, with black blotches on the pores and skin. We have no written description. The apple we found on the ground in November, which may be St. Cecilia, is shown within the second image. On 15 Feb 2014 seven students gathered to learn to graft fruit trees at Cosby Methodist Church Hall from members of the Leicestershire Heritage Apples group - Alison, Claire and Nigel.

The course began at 10am and started with two quick talks on varied points of grafting and a budding exercise. The work progressed to practising the cleft graft and the whip-and-tongue graft on scions and stocks of various thicknesses. After a wonderful apple cake prepared by Alison and an apple tasting (of several very late unusual varieties, all picked after 1st Jan) the afternoon session was used to make two apple bushes every. Great focus was proven (see the images beneath) and there was no blood. The course concluded at about 3pm. It is going to be run again next 12 months, identical venue, third Saturday in February. We are pleased to see so much enthusiasm for this important horticultural ability, and prolong our due to Claire Moore for helping to run the session. The special quality of this apple is its amazingly late ripening. These apples, from a small tree in a container, had been picked on 31 Jan. The fruit tastes recent and agency; no acid, quite candy, and a very slightly bitter aftertaste.

The appearance is quite enticing and the shape is somewhat ribbed and irregular. The growth habit could be very vigorous. The grafting (rafaeljsze68024.loginblogin.com) season is approaching, so we will quickly be busy making new bushes; principally the Leicestershire Heritage varieties. However others will probably be achieved too; e-mail if there's a specific selection which we have that you simply can't get anywhere else. If you possibly can arrange assortment (we don't use carriers) and can collect, we could also be ready to assist. We now have a large number of timber to re-pot and to plant out, but the very wet weather is causing a delay. Nevertheless the timber can be dormant for a while but, so there is no want to rush. Members of LHAP assisted with an apple planting at Woodstone Primary School, Ravenstone on 10 Jan 2014. The trees had been Leicestershire heritage varieties. We're pleased to see local faculties doing such excellent work with college students and growing their consciousness of the place meals comes from.

Click on the images to see the element. Late apple tasting carried out on 4 Jan 2014; these were all very late 'section 3' varieties with concentrated flavours. High Cross (dry and rather acidic), Croft Late, Durrant (very candy, parma violets, no acidity), Wickson (tart, fruity, very juicy), Grenadine (past its best; acidity gone and crumbly texture). LHAP was invited to a tree planting in Stoke Golding on 5 Dec 2013. For two years, college students at Saint Martin's Catholic Voluntary Academy have been concerned in studying about apples, in a mission coordinated by Mrs. Doreen Rose. Stage 1 was to hunt permission to investigate the gardens of local folks during the apple season to investigate the wide selection of apples grown nearby, particularly their flavours and appearances. Local people allowed pupils to take apples away to a specifically-organized 'Apple Day', and to learn somewhat about how to identify them. Stage 2 was to take small items of wooden from these timber in February, and to make use of the cuttings (referred to as 'scions') to make new apple timber. Stage 3 was to plant a nursery bed, which is proven below. The pictures present the top of the college, Mrs. Brenda Carson (and a scholar involved with the mission) planting the last two trees. Students are fully concerned at each stage, and finally the younger bushes might be used to start out a new neighborhood orchard on a part of the land formerly occupied by the old Convent. I'm concerned with various individuals in mapping the neighborhood orchards (and some other orchards) of Leicestershire. That is an ongoing mission.
