Apple of the Day: Ken Morrish of Colaton Raleigh, East Devon, claims to have picked this mutated Golden Delicious apple from a tree in his garden.
“The red and green split through the stem is totally perfect - as if I’ve painted it,” Mr. Morrish was quoted as saying. “It’s a genuine one-off and none of us have ever seen an apple like it before.”
Horticulturists who have examined the fruit say it is the product of a random genetic mutation. Or paint.
