The search for the Leicestershire St. Cecilia apple continues. On 18 Feb, scions were collected from three previous bushes within the St. Joseph's space, near the Abbey. These have now been grafted. We await with interest (in three years' time) the fruit on the new trees. St. Cecilia is a lesser-identified apple bred by Friar Ailred McPike, within the 1940s, on the Abbey. Better known is the St. Ailred apple, which is available from us and from a few nurseries; both apples had been bred from James Grieve x Ellison's Orange, but the final known tree of St. Cecilia has disappeared. Judging by the dad and mom, it would probably be a James Grieve-kind apple, maybe with a trace of anise in its flavour, with black blotches on the pores and skin. We have no written description. The apple we found on the bottom in November, which may be St. Cecilia, is proven within the second picture. On 15 Feb 2014 seven college students gathered to discover ways to graft fruit bushes at Cosby Methodist Church Hall from members of the Leicestershire Heritage Apples staff - Alison, Claire and Nigel.

The course started at 10am and started with two brief talks on varied features 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 an excellent 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 below) and there was no blood. The course concluded at about 3pm. It will likely be run once more subsequent year, same venue, third Saturday in February. We are pleased to see a lot enthusiasm for this vital horticultural skill, and extend our thanks 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 fresh and agency; no acid, quite candy, and a very slightly bitter aftertaste.

The appearance is sort of engaging and the shape is considerably ribbed and irregular. The growth behavior is very vigorous. The grafting season is approaching, so we are going to quickly be busy making new timber; principally the Leicestershire Heritage varieties. However others shall be completed too; electronic mail if there's a particular selection which now we have that you just can't get anywhere else. If you may arrange assortment (we don't use carriers) and may acquire, we could also be in a position to assist. We've got a large number of trees to re-pot and to plant out, however the very wet weather is inflicting a delay. Nevertheless the timber will likely be dormant for a while yet, blowjob so there is no need to rush. Members of LHAP assisted with an apple planting at Woodstone Primary School, Ravenstone on 10 Jan 2014. The timber have been Leicestershire heritage varieties. We're pleased to see local schools doing such excellent work with college students and growing their consciousness of the place meals comes from.

Click on the photographs to see the element. Late apple tasting accomplished on 4 Jan 2014; these were all very late 'part 3' varieties with concentrated flavours. High Cross (dry and reasonably acidic), Croft Late, Durrant (very sweet, parma violets, no acidity), Wickson (tart, fruity, very juicy), Grenadine (past its finest; 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 seek permission to research the gardens of local folks in the course of the apple season to investigate the wide range of apples grown close by, particularly their flavours and appearances. Local people allowed pupils to take apples away to a specifically-organized 'Apple Day', and to be taught a bit about how you can determine them. Stage 2 was to take small pieces of wood from these bushes in February, and to use the cuttings (referred to as 'scions') to make new apple bushes. Stage three was to plant a nursery mattress, which is proven under. The photographs present the top of the school, Mrs. Brenda Carson (and a student involved with the project) planting the final two timber. Students are fully concerned at each stage, and ultimately the young trees will likely be used to start a brand new group orchard on a part of the land previously occupied by the previous Convent. I'm concerned with various folks in mapping the community orchards (and some other orchards) of Leicestershire. That is an ongoing project.
