Apple trees. I bought two giant apple trees. Giant because of the size of the fruit. I planted both trees that are grafted on to dwarf rootstock in a large pot. The first variety is called "Peasgood Nonsuch" and is an english apple variety that makes huge apples sometimes up to 800 gramms. It is good for cooking and for eating and if you make an apple pie for your family you might only need to use one apple.

The second variety is called "Aport" also known under the name of "Alexander". This is a russian apple that some say comes from the Ukraine and others say it comes from Kazakhstan having malus sieversii in its ancestors. Some fruit of this variety is said to have weighed over 1kg.

So i planted these two varieties together for fun, in order to try and cross them and grow new giant apple varieties from seed. Both varieties are growing on M9 rootstock. I grafted Peasgood Nonsuch onto the Aport apple. Aport flowered last year but didn't make fruit. The flowers were huge and i had the impression that they were twice the size of normal apple flowers, something to verify this year.
