Apple ‘Pixie’

‘Pixie’, a diminutive apple bursting with flavour, with a mysterious lineage believed to be linked to either Cox’s Orange Pippin or Sunset. As a descendant of Sunset, ‘Pixie’ shares striking similarities in both appearance and taste. Its flavour profile is exceptional, exuding a slightly sharper tang than a Cox, especially right after harvesting, with a sharpness that’s invigorating rather than acidic. Additionally, Pixie is refreshingly juicy and delightfully crisp, setting it apart from Cox apples.

Pollination information: This apple belongs to pollination group 4, and is not self fertile, so does not need a pollinating partner to produce a crop of apples. Use another apple variety or flowering crab apple in this group or those of group 3.
