All about Topaz apple trees
Topaz was developed in the Czech Republic specifically for disease-resistance. The apples have a balanced flavour, tending towards the sharper end of the spectrum.
Topaz apples are also very good for juicing, the juice has a lovely tangy apple flavour.
Red Topaz is a sport of the original variety, with a stronger red colouration.
Growing and Training
Topaz is a good choice for organic growers, or growers who don't want to use any pesticides at all.

More about apple trees
Towards the end of September and into October we see late-season apple varieties beginning to ripen. Their longer ripening period typically means these varieties have the most interesting flavours.
Unlike mid and early season apples which are generally best eaten straight from the tree, many late-season varieties need to be stored in a fridge for a few weeks to mature before their flavours are at their peak. So if you want to be able to eat home-grown apples through the winter then late-season varieties are your best choice.
Some of the most famous English apple varieties fall into this category - including the classic Adams Pearmain, and the ancient Ashmead's Kernel with its peardrop flavours. We also find popular modern varieties such as Spartan, Red Falstaff, Fiesta, and Kidd's Orange Red all coming to perfection at this time of year.
