Sort of.How big must an apple be before you can call it an apple?
I ate it. It almost popped my eyeballs out of their sockets, but I grew it, and so I ate it.

I believe you are quite justified in calling it an apple Ali! I think it's great produce anything with all the humidty around. We tried several species of 'tropical' fruit trees with no success at all - so well done you - sour or not!! cheers Wendy
Oh thanks so much Wendy :) I am very proud of my apple.
My baby apples are having similiar issues... I made pectin from the parts that were OK still!
It looks very sweet, even if it didn't taste too sweet. I would feel proud if I was you :)
He is awesome! I used to love sour apples as a kid. The more face-sucking-in it was the better!
It wont be long and the tree will be making more than you can eat!
Well done, did not know it was possible in Briz. Was it a little tart, the teeny applette? melx
Aww! What type was that one Ali? Was it Golden Dorset?
I'm desperately trying to avoid picking mine too early, but I only have two, so not much room for error!

Yep, its an apple alright....good for you..I have had years of little tart apples like that, and last year I got my first tub full...Im thinking this year might be like your harvest...maybe one....lol...but anyhow its all fun.
Hope your chidlets (and you!) are enjoying these last couple of weeks of pre xmas fun and games....xxx
could of made an apple pie with it LOLOL
If it looks like an apple its an apple. There is nothing quite like under ripe fruit to make your face pucker.
One little step further towards that goal of self-sufficiency! Hopefully it is a sign of more good things to come in the future.
I have learned the hard way that apple trees don't do well unless they get plenty of water. I was sorely tempted to dig up my apple tree this year, but I have decided to try one more time...
That is an Apple Well done Ali.
Like Mark says a step closer.
Yes you should eat an apply daily from your garden,after all you've grown them! But I hope next them you pluck one it's all red and nice to eat.

Thanks for making me smile — I remember when we first started growing our own food, and concluded that we were doomed to starve...
How exciting! (Love your blog btw) I can totally feel your joy. I've been there with my first teeny tiny bite of something I've spent MONTHS waiting to grow.

G'Day Ms Mud Pie! Where are you? i am worried that the little apple had a spell cast by an evil stepmother/witch to poison you because you are so beautiful. Please tell me it isn't true and that you are just enjoying a holiday or something.
hello mudpie you have been nominted for an award. Please pop over to my blog and pick it up. Congratulations Heidi :-)

Hey Ali, I'm missing your fabulously fun posts. Hope you are just super-busy enjoying the school holidays with the boys. Hope you have a new kitchen by now!

Someone kiss her quick.
GRUMBLE GRUMBLE! WHERE ARE YOU!! Miss you x
I'm trying to come to terms with the realisation that everything which is wrong with my garden is because I began with an espaliered apple so I can't plant things in front of the south facing wall. And the apples taste horrid. But it's the idea of the thing which entrances still . . .
Like the photo of the apple before it was cut a lot.
This is very bad luck. Your apple is wastes. Best of luck next.
