The Story of Little Pax®
Not too long ago, one little tree – with no name and of unknown origin, was gifted to St Cecilia’s Abbey in Ryde on the Isle of Wight.

Benedictine nuns at the 19th Century Abbey planted and nurtured this sapling in their beautiful and peaceful walled gardens overlooking the Solent. In this quiet and safe haven, the tree flourished and soon produced the most stunning spring blossom, followed by a bumper harvest of exceptional apples in late autumn.
