We have been developing a database of apple collections in Australia.
The database so far records over 900 varieties in Australia in some 25 collections. Unfortunately there are a few
collectors who refuse to
provide a list of their collections for fear unwanted publicity. Regretably about 100 of the varieties in private collections are likely to be
lost due the recent drought conditions. Feedback from collectors in
Western and South Australia wouild be most welcome.
If you have a collection of heritage apples in Australia - please let us know by email.
The following is a list of all the
apple varieties we know about in Australia extracted from our collection
database.
The List - is grouped into Ciders, General Apples, Rootstocks, Plant Breeders Rights and Plant Breeder Rights Pending.
The list includes variety synonyms signified by italic print and where known country of origin.
