Meet Lord Hindlip and a bloody ploughman!

Lord Hindlip and Bloody Ploughman are, of course, apple varieties and today and tomorrow it's the Reaseheath Apple Festival.

Here you can see around 100 different varieties of apples

and get advice on how to grow apples

and what to do if they look like this!
It's also worth exploring the Reaseheath Model Fruit Garden, where the crab apples look fantastic:
There's also a chance to try and buy some apples and Reaseheath cheese.

If you live in the Midlands you may prefer to go to the Tenbury AppleFest (on today), and if you live in the South visit the RHS's Taste of Autumn at Wisley (16th - 19th October 2009). More suggestions here (thanks to the Inelegant Gardener).  Click here to read more about Cheshire Apples.
