Russet apple trees
Although not usually grown commercially, russet apples with their sandpaper-like skin are popular amongst gardeners and home orchardists. There are several different varieties, and whilst they are not necessarily related to each other, they tend to share some common characteristics - notably the attractive russet colouring, a sweeter flavour, and flesh which is firm rather than crunchy.
