Apple Yellow Ingestrie A very old English apple, dating back to the early 19th century, Apple Yellow Ingestrie is a early to mid-season dessert apple which makes a lovely specimen tree for a garden. The fruit is rather small, round and bright yellow; the flesh is also yellow, crisp and fine-textured with a sharp-sweet ‘apple-y’ flavour. The tree is compact, with a spreading, slightly weeping habit; blossom and fruit are particularly attractive. Crops are abundant and reliable. Spur-bearer.
