I believe my apple tree is a golden delicious, as it has got full sun, the apples have a lot of red flushing on them, can anyone confirm, thank you

    That's not a Golden Delicious. The name describes it

    The clue is in the name, albeit almost subliminal.

    It's almost impossible to tell an apple variety from a photo but my Cox's Orange Pippin fruit look just like that right now.  It's definitely not Golden Delicious as @nutcutlet says.
