Our website is named after England's most famous apple variety - Cox's Orange Pippin - widely regarded as the finest of all dessert apples. 'Pippin' is an old English word derived from the French word for 'seedling', and like many old apple varieties Cox's Orange Pippin was discovered as a chance seedling.

    If you have never had a apple pie made from a GREENING you are missing one if not the best. This is an old variety and difficult to find these days.
  • Apple - Junami

    This apple is excellent with a sweet crisp taste and nice crunch . I certainly enjoyed this more than a pink lady apple. I haven't seen this on sale much in the UK mine was from Tesco finest range and grown in beautiful Dorset. I will definitely buy more.
  • Apple - Elise

    Excellent taste, so juicy
  • Apple - Sunburst

    Hi, I haven’t tasted sunburst but am looking for a semi standard apple tree to pollinate our Lane’s Prince Albert, as our Red Falstaff got badly diseased. We are at about 800 feet in the South Yorkshire Pennines.
