Thanks, folks - it's all been very useful feedback.
The Minarette type sounds particularly interesting for the variety of
fruits on offer.

You'd be better off growing cordons - your choice of varieties is greater.

Minarette varieties, in my experience, are indifferent apples.


Ken Muir offers 15 varieties of minarette in his catalogue including
egremont russet and james grieve. I would be surprised if you could find
nothing to your taste in that collection.
