The UK National Fruit Collection

Thousands of varieties. How many have you tasted?

Damson turns the National Fruit Collection into a life list — browse the cultivars, learn what makes each one distinct, and keep a record of every variety you taste.

Browse the whole collection

Every named cultivar held at Brogdale — apples, pears, plums, cherries and more — searchable by name and synonym.

Keep a life list

Mark each variety as you taste it, however you tried it — raw, cooked, as juice or as cider.

Track your progress

See how far through the collection you are, category by category. A finite set, methodically worked through.
