Apple Tree - Cox Self Fertile (MM106)
Availability: Out of stock
For gardeners who want the rich, fragrant flavour of classic Cox's apples without the need for a pollination partner, the Cox's Self Fertile Apple Tree is an excellent option. This type produces medium-sized, red-flushed fruits that are very sweet and somewhat acidic. They are ideal for eating fresh, juicing, or adding flavour to salads and desserts. The tree's lovely white-pink blossoms in the spring bring bees and other beneficial insects to your garden, and the apples will be ready to be picked from late September to October.
Plant in a sunny spot with well-drained, fertile soil. This self-fertile variety does not require another apple tree to produce fruit, making it ideal for smaller gardens or standalone planting. Prune annually in winter to maintain shape and encourage healthy fruiting.
Supplied in approx. 12 litre containers grafted on a MM106 rootstock, this semi-dwarf variety of rootstock reaches an ultimate height of 3-5m and most of the crop should be accessible from the ground, picking fruit from higher up on the tree may require a ladder..
