GROWN LOCALLY IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA
Lady Williams is a cultivar of apple; the fruits 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] Maud and Arthur Williams owned the farm in Donnybrook, Western Australia, on which the tree that this chance seedling sprung from.[3] Maud was instrumental in recognizing the potential of this new apple and it is named after her.[4] Lady Williams is the pollen parent of Cripps Pink,[5] Cripps Red and Western Dawn (Enchanted).
