Our Fruit

To us, the greatest thing about growing your own fruit is being able to pick and eat it fresh off the tree, vine or cane. A handfull of berries, fresh plums or crisp apples, there is nothing quite like them.

A word of warning! Different soils require different rootstocks. If your nursery cannot tell you what rootstocks are best suited to your area, or does not carry suitable rootstocks go to a nursery that can or does.

If in the first season a fruit tree gets a disease that your established trees do not have, give it the heave ho. It is not worth trying to treat one tree in amongst others as in the long term the disease will spread
