Cox's Orange Pippin, also known as Malus domestica 'Cox's Orange Pippin’, is widely regarded as one of the finest apple varieties you can grow. Many people describe this fruit as the finest tasting dessert apple in the world.
Known for its delicious flavour, this heritage apple tree produces medium-sized, orange-red fruits that are as sweet as they are beautiful.
That sweet, crisp taste combined with a juicy texture and aromatic flavour make them an ideal choice for cider making or cooking. Or, you can pick them straight off the tree and enjoy their rich, bold taste right in the comfort of your garden.
In spring, the tree jumps into life with a shower of pinkish-white blossoms that not only look stunning but also attract pollinators. As the flowers fade, they give way to a generous crop of apples that mature in early autumn.
Cox’s Orange Pippin is a pretty compact tree, making it suitable for smaller gardens or as part of a mixed orchard. It thrives in well-drained, fertile soil and enjoys a sunny position to ensure the best fruit production. This tree is fully hardy, so it will reliably produce fruit year after year, even in the unpredictable UK climate.
Although this tree is self fertile, it can also be used to cross pollinate other apple trees in the same or adjacent flowering group (e.g. Crispin).
Whether you're an experienced gardener or just starting, Malus Cox's Orange Pippin is a must-have for anyone who values flavour and quality in their home-grown produce. Don't miss out on adding this classic apple tree to your garden - order yours today!
