Malus domestica 'Cox Self Fertile' offers the exceptional flavour of the classic British Cox’s Orange Pippin apple, but with the added benefit of being self-pollinating, meaning it doesn’t require a second tree for fruiting. This self-sufficient variety retains all the beloved characteristics of the traditional Cox apple, including its richly aromatic flavour, making it perfect for fresh eating, cooking, and baking. With its compact bush form, Cox Self Fertile is an ideal choice for smaller gardens, patios, or productive orchard borders, allowing modern growers to enjoy this heritage variety even in limited spaces. The tree also produces fragrant, pale-pink spring blossoms, adding ornamental value to the garden in addition to its delicious harvest.
