Howgate Wonder is a widely planted variety in gardens and to a small extent for the Farm Shop trade. It is famous for producing exceptionally large apples and this variety often wins the ‘heaviest apple’ competition at the National Fruit Show in Kent. Howgate Wonder is valued also for its good regular crops and for its hardiness – it can withstand harsh frosts. Howgate Wonder can be used for cooking and for eating. It was raised in Howgate Lane, Bembridge, Isle of Wight from a Blenheim Orange, Newton Wonder cross in 1915 – 16 and introduced in 1932.
