‘Savouring Old Apple Varieties’ in local collections and international research.
Much time and dedication is undertaken to find, propagate, care for, and record apple varieties that are no longer commercially viable or had local resonance, with heritage collections worldwide, often volunteer-run, aiming to preserve the world’s richly diverse population of apple varieties. This article looks at how one such local collection is helping to protect old cider apple varieties by gaining National Plant Collection® status, and international efforts to understand the vast diversity of apples, their provenance, and interrelationships.
