Key Points
Apple variety "Little Pax." This late-season dessert apple has distinctive characteristics, including sweet, aromatic, bright red apples with yellow markings. The fruit has a 'pearmain' shape and is known for its excellent flavour. Little Pax is noted for its abundant spring blossom, and it stores well over the winter, maintaining quality into the New Year if refrigerated. However, it is important to note that Little Pax is not self-fertile, so it requires a pollinating partner from group 3 to set fruit. The history of Little Pax involves its discovery as a seedling tree in the gardens of St. Cecilia's Abbey in Ryde, Isle of Wight, in 2000. The Benedictine nuns at the Abbey planted and nurtured the sapling in their walled gardens, where it thrived and produced beautiful spring blossoms and a bountiful harvest of exceptional apples in late autumn. For successful pollination, Little Pax requires a pollinating partner from group 3. The suggested pollination partners include: Apple Bountiful Apple Braeburn Apple Cox Self Fertile Apple Egremont Russet Apple Discovery Apple Ellisons Orange Apple Fiesta Apple Gala These apple varieties from group 3 are suitable for cross-pollination with Little Pax, ensuring the development of fruit. If you are planning to grow Little Pax, consider planting one or more of these recommended pollination partners nearby to enhance fruit set.

Recycled Growing Media
At Lincs Plants, we’re proud to use a recycled, peat free growing mix that’s made right here in Lincolnshire. It’s made from coir with around 20% silt loam added in.
The coir keeps the mix light and free draining, while the silt loam adds structure and helps hold moisture and nutrients. By recycling used media and using locally sourced materials, we cut down on waste and reduce the need for imported peat based composts.
This home grown mix is part of our commitment to sustainable growing and supporting local production wherever possible.
At Lincs Plants, we operate from two main locations. When you place an order, we prepare and pack plants across both sites depending on what you’ve ordered.

We have five collections a day, so orders can leave throughout the day as soon as they’re ready.
