Queen of the Realm is a new apple variety, released in 2022 by the Frank P. Matthews nursery, to celebrate the Queen's platinum jubilee. It is a pretty apple, with a dark-red skin dotted with white lenticels.

The apples ripen in mid-September and are best eaten straight from the tree. The flesh is crisp and juicy.
