Malus domestica 'Orleans Reinette'

This classic dual purpose dessert/culinary apple is the French equivalent of our Cox's Orange Pippin, thought to have originated from France in the late 18th century. The golden russet fruits are flushed red and have a wonderful, complex, orangey, nutty flavour. Particularly delicious in salads and for accompanying vintage port at Christmas time but also very useful as a cooking apple. In French cuisine it is used in the famous upside down apple tarte 'Tarte Tatin'. The tree is vigorous and has good scab resistance.

RHS Perfect for Pollinators

Pollination: Group C.

Season: Oct - Jan.

A much loved and ever popular fruit, dessert apples (sometimes referred to as eating apples) are those varieties that are sweet enough to be eaten ‘straight from the tree’ without any cooking required. One of the delights for any home gardener is watching apples ripen on the tree and then deciding which ones are ready to be harvested. With such a diverse range of appearances and flavours ranging from hints of strawberry to aniseed, an apple variety can be found to suit everyone.
 
Our apple trees are grafted onto M26 semi-dwarfing rootstock, which will produce a tree that is easy to grow, easy to control and easy to pick.
 
Apple trees on M26 rootstock can be grown in several different forms:
 
  • Bush apple trees on M26 will typically grow to 2.4-3.6m (8-12ft) in height and spread.
  • If space is limited, consider growing cordons. These columnar trees should be restricted to 1.8m-2.4m (6-8ft) in height and can be spaced 60cm (2ft) apart. They can be grown as vertical cordons (just use a stake to support them) or oblique cordons (against a wall or fence). They are also perfect for container growing.
  • You can also train an apple tree as an espalier or fan against a wall or fence or as a stepover (a low growing tree that you can simply 'step over'). For any of these forms you will need to start off with a one year old tree (only available in selected varieties).
     
Bare root trees are only available when they are fully dormant (usually from late November/December until late March). Where we quote a height on despatch, this includes the root system.
 

Don't forget to include tree stakes and ties on your order.  All young fruit trees require staking and for better establishment we strongly advise using Rootgrow when planting (as recommended in RHS planting guidelines).
