    Nearly all apples do best when they have a pollinator to increase fertilisation and apple production so yes, absolutely, use a reputable supplier who can advise you.

    I just planted an Ellisons Orange in a container after doing some reseach, as I live in Scotland and our garden is a bit windy, and it seems to be ok for those conditions. It's partially self-pollinating, so should produce some apples without another tree. Yet to see how it does! 

    I found some websites really helpful with lots of descriptions.
