Variety description

10 August 2026

The Ballerina Charlotte variety is a columnar apple tree bred as part of a breeding program involving Kenneth Tobutt. The plant is distinguished by a compact growth habit, characteristic of this series, and produces medium to large-sized fruits that are flat-conical in shape with a bright red blush on a green background.

There is also an ornamental variety Malus coronaria 'Charlotte', which is a distinct taxon and is not intended for fruit cultivation. Available sources lack standardized agronomic data on the disease resistance of the columnar form of the variety.
