Malus 'Cox's Orange Pippin' is a strong-growing tree with a fairly wide, open crown. As a tree, this apple tree is unfortunately susceptible to mildew and slightly prone to scab. From mid-September to early October, the apples ripen. These are relatively small and slightly flattened round. Initially pale green, the apples turn greenish-yellow with a beautiful orange-red blush and broad stripes as they ripen. The flesh is quite firm and juicy. The flavour is pleasantly acidic and remarkably aromatic. 'Cox's Orange Pippin' is a very good hand apple, also suitable for juicing. Unsuitable for use in apple pie. Hardiness zone 6.
