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 labelled 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.

How to plant.
