Apple Christmas Pippin

Apple Christmas Pippin

Item: CHRISTMAS

Dessert Apple  - Christmas Pippin is an exceptionally high quality eating experience. We would happily say this is the ‘new garden Cox’ but unlike this classic vintage variety, Christmas Pippin flowers and crops heavily. Delicious honey-flavoured fruit with creamy flesh, sweet and high in sugar content. Thin, orange flushed skin, juicy and crisp texture. A suitable garden variety for beginners as it's easy to grow. The apples store well until Christmas, so perfect for the Christmas Day apple pie or crumble! History: First introduced in 2011 after it was discovered growing beside a road in an orchard in Somerset. The parentage is unknown, but there is clearly a resemblance to Cox's Orange Pippin.

When is the best time to plant a fruit tree - Container grown apple trees can be planted at any time of the year. Bare Root apple trees can only be planted between the months of November - April.

Planting distance for apple trees - All fruit trees are grafted onto a rootstock. It is the rootstock that determines how big the apple tree will grow into. There is a rootstock guide at the top of all fruit tree product pages that explains this. As tall as the tree will grow into would be the planting distance. Example MM106 will grow to 3-4 metres when mature. So a spacing of between 3-4 metres would be required.

Can I grow a apple tree in a pot - All fruit trees will be happy growing in a large container. A pot around 50-60cm is ideal. There is more information on growing fruit trees in containers in our FAQ page.

How do I prune a fruit tree - Our Care Guide explains the basic principles of fruit tree pruning.

Blackmoor is one of very few Nurseries in the UK offering gardeners the opportunity to buy Malus domestica Ashmead's Kernel apple fruit trees direct from our Nursery. We have one of the largest range of apple trees available for sale online.
