What our customers say: I have ordered quite a lot from online gardening sites over the years and I have to say your plants look the best and healthiest I have ever received. Thanks so much for the fruit trees. As others have said, they are bigger than I'd anticipated, were of excellent quality, and very well packaged. What a great service you provide!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q : Do you supply a printed catalogue ?

A : We no longer produce a paper catalogue. They are expensive and out of date as soon as they are printed. All of our stock can be viewed and purchased from our website. The website is updated daily and this avoids any out of stock items being ordered and having to send substitutions. If you go to our product guide, this is a easy way to view all stock items.

Q : Do you grow Espalier or Fan trained fruit trees ?

A : Yes, all the trained fruit trees are in their own section. Click here to view what is available 

Q : Can fruit trees be grown in containers ?

A : Yes, all fruit trees can be grown in pots as long as they are large enough. see our fruit growers handbook section, for more advise on growing trees in containers.

Q : I wish to collect my order from the Nursery, is this possible ?

A : Yes you can order on the website and select the collection option at the checkout.

Q : I have placed an order with you, when can I expect delivery ?

A : We only lift the trees and soft fruit plants when they are fully dormant and all the leaves have fallen. This depends on the season but this is normally around the end of November. We shall start the dispatch around that time and we shall get your order to you as soon as possible. We shall inform you via email of the delivery day as soon as it is know closer to the time.

Q : How much is the delivery charge ?

A : The delivery charge is worked out from the weight and the size of the plant. We have several rates that apply to UK mainland addresses. A delivery charge of £10.00 is for all tree orders (except any trained trees) regardless of the number of trees and plants ordered. The lower postal rates will be applied to smaller orders of the lighter plants like currants, raspberries, gooseberries, blackberries, asparagus and strawberries although larger orders will go into the £10.00 rate. Once you have put together your order the delivery charge will show before payment.

Q : Can you recommend a variety for me ?

A : It is hard to recommend varieties as this is down to personal taste. Each variety has its own unique taste. You can see in the best sellers our most popular varieties. If it is an Apple then the easiest variety to grow is Falstaff.

Q : I am selecting which rootstock I want but I am not sure what the planting distances should be if I am planning to grow them as normal bush shape ?

A : The basic rule is that whatever height your tree will eventually reach will also be your planting distance. For example M26 will grow to around 3 metres and so will need a planting distance of 3 metres, M27 will grow 2 metres and will need a planting distance of 2 metres.  

Q : Are you able to deliver your fruit trees to France ?

A : Yes, we can deliver to any country within the European Union. The delivery charge is worked out by the size and weight of the order and the delivery destination. If you add the items required and proceed to check out then the delivery cost will show before you confirm the order. We are unable to send orders to any countries outside the European Union.
