Interesting research project to identify apple varieties from their leaves - but more leaves are needed. 
Wish I lived nearer - I have lots of unidentified apples.
That’s really interesting veggie.
Would say wish I still lived down that way (I don’t) but I didn’t have any apple trees.
I’d love to send some of my apple tree leaves. Not got a clue what they are. Unfortunately No matter how I look at it, I can’t class Mull as being close to Bristol. Unless I say I’m closer to Bristol than Africa or Canada  Rolleyes .
That's a good study it must be frustrating trying to identify your own apple tree.
We have 2 Worcester Pearmains that we bought 35 year ago after tasting one from a mature tree the nursery had. Pity they don't keep to well.
Well I'm not in Bristol but not that far being on the edge of Wilts/ Bath. But I think it maybe a bit far?
