Cox Orange Pippin is often referred to as the “finest English dessert apple”. By all accounts this must be true as the tree itself is prone to disease and biennialism. Both of those things are manageable if you desire the finest of fruit but if this is your first fruit tree perhaps go with a more disease resistant variety. If you’re up for the challenge you can expect this tree to ripen in late September.
B.118 Rootstock
Very Hardy, Semi-Standard Rootstock with red leaves and wood. Will grow to 80-90% of a standard tree or roughly 20ft. We use this rootstock because it produces trees that will be actual trees and importantly should grow taller than the deer can reach.
