Cox's Orange Pippin - Eating Apple
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 clouds
snow white flowers in spring. As if all that was not enough Cox's
Orange Pippins make great cider. It would surely appear on any
list of the greatest English eating apples.
Cox's is a mid-season flowering pollinator and so needs to
be grown in the company of another pollinator or a self-fertile
apple for both to fruit. For more on apple and fruit pollination

Cox's Orange Pippin needs a hole 100cms across and 40cms deep. If necessary, the soil can be improved with a little well rotted compost or manure. Stake the tree with a 50mm (2") diameter tree stake, and secure it with a buckle and strap tree tie within 50-60 cms of the ground. Weeds and grass should be kept away from the trunk by weeding, spraying or using a mulch mat. For further information, take a look at our Tree Planting Guide.
