Similar to Red Devil in appearance but pre-dating it by about 100 years. Original tree located by
George Humphrey, Roundbush, Essex, where it is growing on an ancient parish boundary. The tree has been
propogated. Cortex wood is pink, leaves have a strong bronze-reddish tint, unlike Red Devil which is
predominantly green. It may be an ancient valued variety, but the name is lost; I have therefore
given it the name "George's Red", after the person who sent it to me.
