Malus domestica 'Red Devil' is a bold, bright red apple that gets its name from the Red Devil parachute display team and originates from Kent in 1975. The scarlet colour makes a wonderful display in any garden and the white blossoms in spring also add an attractive feature to a garden.

Red Devil is known for its delicious fruity strawberry flavour and when you bite into it, you will notice that the juicy flesh is stained with the red colour from the skin. This apple is ideal for juicing with its sweet flavour and can also be eaten straight off the tree.

If you have a smaller garden, Red Devil is ideal as it is self-fertile and does not require a pollination partner. You can plant only one tree and expect to get a great crop of ripe red apples in the month of October. It enjoys full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Because it is resistant to disease, it requires little care and attention. The Red Devil can be used to pollinate other trees in the same flowering group, such as the Crispin.
