One of the first apples to be planted in this orchard in 1994 this is a cross between a Cox’s Orange Pippin and Idared developed by Dr F Alston at the East Malling Research Station in Kent. More recently it has been commercially known as the Red Pippin. This dessert apple is round/conical in shape, with a light yellow-green background flushed and striped with crimson. Its flesh is crisp and juicy with a good, sweet, tangy flavour making it a popular eating apple.
Matures late September and stores well in a cool environment.
