I hope it wasn't your own. Unripe apples should only ever be picked from the neighbours garden, preferably with a large angry dog at the foot of the tree... AND you should have a tummy ache for at least 24 hours afterwards.
Seems early. What kind of apple? There's a yellow-green apple that comes in over here late summer or so. I forget the name. My grandmother had a tree and so did the neighbors, when I was a child.
I heard something on the radio the other week about it being a particularly good year for the commercial apple crop. (So I suppose it must be good for garden apple trees too.)
Not only were the apples ripening early but the season should carry on for a long time. It was something to do with the weather having been favourable early on in the year.
