Cox's Orange Pippin is an eating apple that has it all. It has a wonderful crisp texture, tangy taste and it juices well. Cox's are also aromatic and keep well. The tree itself is strong growing and fairly upright and carries loads of snow white flowers in spring. As if all that was not enough Cox's Orange Pippins make great cider. It appears on any list of the greatest English eating apples.
Cox's is a mid-season flowering pollinator and this variety is self-fertile, although cross-pollination does tend to improve the crop.
We sell the tree in 3 formats depending on the time of year & availability:
1BR = 1 year old maiden bare root tree sold from Nov to Spring. Approx 120 - 150cm tall. Bare roots will be wrapped in a bag.
2BR = 2 year old bare root tree sold from Nov to Spring. Approx 120 - 150cm tall. The tree will have been grown an extra year in our fields and benefits from a thicker trunk / root system and will be more likely to produce fruit this coming summer.
9L = 2 year old tree that has spent approx 1 year growing in a poly pot ( polythene 9 litre bag ). Approx 120 - 150cm tall. The tree will benefit from a more developed root system and can be planted all year round. The tree will also haves a thicker trunk and will be more likely to produce fruit this summer.
Please note we start taking orders for Bare root trees from approx 2nd week in November when the trees have become dormant for the winter.
