A fruit of two halves: Meet the red and green apple with a split personality
But after inspecting it closely he realized that the remarkable split colours on the fruit were a natural phenomenon. And the bizarre apple turned Mr Morrish into something of a celebrity in his village with scores of neighbours queuing up to take a photograph of it.
Experts say that the odds of finding an apple with such a perfect line between the green and the red are more than 1million to one.
Horticulturists say the colouring on the apple are probably caused by a random genetic mutation. In such cases, the red side usually tastes sweeter than the green side - because it has seen more sunshine during its growth.
