Just picked up an apple from my orchard earlier today, as a windfall and
it's two joined like conjoined twins in a major way. I've never seen this
before. This is when I wanted my camera to work.
They are joined all down one side and two apples in one.

I had one like this ten years ago. Just one of the apples would have been
huge (it was a Calville Rouge) but both of them together ......

The smaller was sitting on top of the other. I did publish a photo of it
somewhere - can't remember whether it was here or not, probably not - but
when there were suggestions that I had faked it, I didn't bother with it
any more.

I'll see if I can root out that photo if anyone's interested.


I'm interested -- mine are fused side to side.
As I said, I've never seen it before.

I don't know what variety it is, I inherited my orchard when I moved here.
It's a cooking apple, mainly green with a few red stripes on it and average
size.
