Laxton's Fortune Dwarfing
A Cox's Orange Pippin cross developed in England by the Laxton brothers: renowned breeders and nurserymen in the 1900's, England. An attractive apple - skin red stripes on a yellow/green background with a touch of russet around the stalk. The flesh is soft, aromatic, the flavour sweet, creamy and will definitely remind you of a Cox's.
