'''Newton Wonder''' is a type of [[apple]] that originated in the United Kingdom. It is a late-season apple, typically harvested in October, and is known for its large size and distinctive, slightly flattened shape. The apple has a greenish-yellow skin that is often flushed with red, and its flesh is firm, juicy, and slightly acidic.

== History ==

The Newton Wonder apple was discovered as a chance seedling in the village of [[King's Newton]], Derbyshire, in the late 19th century. It was first propagated by William Taylor, a local nurseryman, and quickly gained popularity due to its size and flavor. The apple was awarded the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit in 1993.

== Characteristics ==

The Newton Wonder apple is a [[triploid]] variety, meaning it has three sets of chromosomes. This makes it sterile and unable to pollinate other apple trees. However, it can be pollinated by a wide range of other apple varieties.

The apple is known for its large size, often weighing over 200 grams. It has a slightly flattened shape and a greenish-yellow skin that is often flushed with red. The flesh is firm, juicy, and slightly acidic, making it ideal for cooking and baking.

== Cultivation ==

Newton Wonder apples are typically harvested in October and can be stored until March. They are a hardy variety, resistant to many common apple diseases, and can be grown in a wide range of climates.

The trees are vigorous and spread out, making them ideal for larger gardens. They require a pollinator to produce fruit, as they are unable to self-pollinate.

== Uses ==

Due to its size and firm flesh, the Newton Wonder apple is often used in cooking and baking. It holds its shape well when cooked, making it ideal for pies and tarts. It can also be used to make cider.
