Apple Varieties at Petty's Orchard


The Heritage Fruits Society manages the heritage block at Pettys. We have approximately 280 varieties on 350 trees, most planted in the 1980s by Melbourne Parks & Waterways. But in recent years, we have made many additions to the collection: some old French cider apples and other heirloom varieties, a collection of varieties of apple rootstock, a wide range of European and Japanese plums, a small but growing variety of apricots, all known varieties of medlars known to be growing in Australia, and a few odds and ends including varieties collected from roadsides.


We run annual free public Grafting Days at Petty's and also at CERES in Brunswick, usually over the first weekend of August. Most of the varieties listed below can be obtained at our Grafting Days as scion wood, a one-year-old tree, or a tree grafted on the spot. We also run public Apple Tastings from February to May, where you can appreciate some of the enormous range of apple types and styles for yourself. All of these events are listed on our home page, generally about a month before they actually happen.


The full list of apple varieties in the collection as at June 2023 is shown below. Those marked '?' are likely to be incorrectly identified.
