‘Discovery’ and ‘Katya’ are both relatively resistant to apple scab and are unlikely to need spraying, but the old tree migh be susceptible and if its fruit was scabbed last year, it will need spraying from when the leaves begin to expand just after budbreak.

 There is more information on apples and apple scab disease in our Know-how section at:
