Description
Pixie was raised in England in 1947 at the National Fruit Trials, and thought to have either Cox’s Orange Pippin or Sunset as one of its parents. The apples are medium in size, round and squat in shape. The skin is green-yellow flushed with orange-red, and painted with tiny broken stripes of red on top. The flesh inside is creamy white, crisp and refreshingly juicy, sweet and highly aromatic.
To guarantee cross pollination plant in a sunny, open site with another tree from the same flowering group (e.g. ‘Lord Derby’)
Common Name: Apple Pixie (Dessert)
Latin Name: Malus domestica ‘Pixie’
