Fruit Trees

Next to vegetables, home-grown fruit is probably one of the most valuable additions to any productive garden. In fact, we'd go as far to say that if you have the room, an orchard or 'mini orchard' is essential!

Fruit trees not only bring an extra abundance of flavours into your home cooking and baking, but for those with limited growing space, fruit trees can actually offer an accommodating compromise. With very few exceptions, the fruit trees we offer are suitable for growing in the ground, as well as in large pots or containers. This means that even if your allocated growing space is limited to a patio, terrace or roof garden, you can still make the most of your space and enjoy fresh pickings with patio fruit trees and espalier fruit trees. In most cases, our trees are also suitable for training into your chosen form, whether it’s bush, cordon, espalier or fan.

Flavour is most often the defining factor in our selection of fruit trees for sale. That's why so many older and heritage varieties have made it into our listings, alongside a number of newer varieties that we have found to have merit. You can be assured that we carefully select each variety that we sell, so although our fruit tree listing is not exhaustive, we firmly believe it represents the very best of what is available.

Our full range of fruit trees are available during the dormant season - from approximately mid November until April - and are generally supplied direct to you as bare root trees lifted from the open ground. During the late Spring and Summer months we are able to supply many varieties as pot grown trees.

Prior to dispatch, our trees are carefully pruned and unless specifically requested we prune our trees for growing in bush form. We offer our customers an exclusive service on our fruit trees, so if you intend to grow in another form please let us know and we shall select and prune them accordingly.
