Supplied as a containerised tree pruned to approximately 3-4 ft (90-120cm) tall including pot.
Available from APPROXIMATELY late November / early DecemberConsidered by many to be the finest of English dessert apples, Cox's Orange Pippin is a crisp, juicy eating apple with an attractive orange-red appearance, aromatic yellow-white flesh and an excellent flavour.
Moderately vigorous, it produces pure white blossom in April-May and fruit in early October. Best if picked fully ripe, or when slightly under-ripe and stored for a month (though can be stored into January). Can also be used for juicing.
Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects.
Recommended by the RHS to assist in encouraging bats into the garden as the flowers are likely to attract moths and other night-flying insects which bats love to eat!
