2 strikes on one stock, one strike on the other

old type from a hospital orchard

i have no idea what they are, they are not several thousand things that folk know of

at least they seem to have taken, cloning a maiden from a hag's fingertip is the stuff of leg end

any ideas as to type id?

The National Apple Collection is held at Brogdale, and they can do apple ID; https://brogdalecollections.org/2021/09/06/identify-your-apple-tree/

I think they can tell you if you have an unknown cultivar too, but they would probably need an apple and section of stalk or leaf for that. I know they found at least one new species of crab apple near here and it is named after a Park Ranger.

we had a brogdale person look over a few of the old hospital orchards, 2/3 of the types could be named

i think these might be from the other third, i will rub out to a couple of fruit and see if that helps
