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!

Let's See What We Have Here
Plums are the most popular of the stone fruit and they are also the easiest to grow. Many varieties are self fertile. There are two rootstocks to chose from; St Julien A which is semi vigorous and will reach a height of 4 metres when mature and Pixy which is dwarfing and will reach a height of 3 metres when mature.
Avalon Blue Tit Czar Excalibur
Herman Jubilee Lizzie (New) Marjorie's Seedling
Opal Seneca (New) Victoria

10 Litre Container grown or Coir Pot trees available now. Bare Root trees available from November-April.

A GUIDE TO CHOOSING THE RIGHT SIZE. Fruit trees are grafted onto rootstocks. Rootstocks come in 5 sizes (2 for Plums) see the chart below, all of our trees are labeled using these codes.

 

VVA1 - 2.5 Metres when mature. the new dwarfing rootstock for Plums. This is the rootstock that commercial growers plant.

Pixy - 2.5 - 3 Metres when mature.

St Julien A (SJA) - 3.5 - 4 Metres when mature.  

For so many reasons it is time to start switching from growing plants and seedlings in plastic pots to growing in organic biodegradable containers. Our containers are made from organically grown coconut husk fibres - coir fibre - with a minimal binding of biodegradable organic latex. The coir fibre pot is satisfyingly easier to plant, with no leftover black plastic trays and pots to permanently clutter our ever reducing landfills.
