Malus domestica 'Bramley 20', also known as the Improved Bramley Apple, is a more compact and productive variation of the classic Bramley Seedling, offering all the benefits of the beloved Bramley with added advantages for modern gardeners. This variety retains the excellent culinary qualities of the traditional Bramley, producing sharp, firm apples that soften beautifully when cooked, making them perfect for pies, crumbles, and sauces. With a slightly smaller growth habit and outstanding disease resistance, Bramley 20 is an ideal choice for home orchards, kitchen gardens, and even larger containers, allowing gardeners with limited space to enjoy a bountiful harvest.
