Apple varieties?

I like Ellison’s Orange which has an aniseed flavour on top of a rich taste similar to a Cox. It’s also juicy and definitely moreish. I’ve only had a cordon a few years but it has proven reliable with good yields.

Thanks prt for your response. I’d given up on this thread way back and catch it now by chance. I’m actually ordering my trees tomorrow so your timing is good, basing varietal choices on Charles list and some others I have gathered. Delivery in December so time to get the frame system up before then. Thanks again.

Thanks Charles and I realise you can’t be everywhere, no worries. It’s taken a while (6 years) to get them in – at least the soil is clean now 🙂 Gardens are never finished I guess…thanks again.

Ribston Pippin is exceptionally well-flavoured (in Cumbria) and stores well, and we also enjoy Brownlees Russett for the same reasons.

I like Ashmead’s Kernel which has excellent aromatic flavour . It’s also juicy and crisp. I’ve only had a cordon a few years but it has proven reliable with good yields. Here are more apple varieties: https://docsbay.net/apple-varieties , hope could help you.

You can also google “Orange pippin fruit trees” for lots of useful info and varietal comparisons aout all sorts of fruit trees. Also very helpful after sales service.
