Lady Williams (apple)
Lady Williams is a cultivar of apple; the fruit are eaten fresh[1] and mature very late in the season.[2] The original tree was a chance seedling, thought to be from Granny Smith, with pollen from either Jonathan or Rokewood.[1] Lady Williams is the pollen parent of Cripps Pink,[3] Cripps Red and Western Dawn (Enchanted).[4]
