Your order will then be ready for you to collect during our normal opening hours which are Monday-Friday 07.30-16.30. Our plants are grown in fields that can be 2 miles away from our office so it is not possible to just turn up and select your own trees.

I've had the tree from you for three years now. Healthy and growing. Last year we had three plums. Looking forward to this year's crops :D

The tree which arrived was very well packaged. The main stem was thick and pruning had given it a very nice shape - no damage in transit and excellent quality - thank you.

I bought a U cordon Mirabelle last year, together with various other dwarf fruit trees. The Mirabelle died in front of my eyes over the first couple of months and never came alive again during 2016. Everything I bought in 2015 and 2016 did well, so this has been a mystery and a disappointment to me.

Purchased in March 2009 as a one year maiden, this tree has developed into a well balanced goblet shape. A glorious coat of blossom in the spring develops through the season into a generous crop of small sweet fruits. Delivered in perfect condition as one would expect of Blackmoor, the mirabelle is an asset to any size of garden.

Would just like to say thank you for a perfect tree delivered to me earlier this week. I enjoyed looking through your website and found the ordering process very straight forward. Kept up to date by email right up to the day of the delivery. Delivery arrived perfectly packaged. I will be back again later in the Spring.
