Description
Raised from a seedling of Cox’s Orange Pippin about 1918 in Kent. Very heavy regular cropper, superb aromatic flavour, crisp and juicy, golden-yellow with orange-red flush. A smaller apple than Cox but as it is much easier to grow is widely grown as a garden variety. Suitable for colder areas and is more resistant to frost.
To guarantee cross pollination plant in a sunny, open site with another tree from the same flowering group (e.g. Discovery).
Common Name: Apple Sunset (Dessert)
