Bare Root bushes available from November-April.

Bushs are grown on a short leg. After planting shorten all shoots by about half their lenght to encourage a strong framework. Subsequent fruiting is encouraged by spur pruning.

All soft fruits are self fertile.

Prior to planting eliminate all perennial weeds. If the soil is acid mix in lime, add organic matter such as compost or manure to light sandy soils. On heavier soils, which are poorly drained, planting on raised beds is beneficial. The incorporation of sand is also helpful. Before planting dig in a handful of fertiliser such as Growmore.

I have used you every winter for the last few years - keep adding to my fruit collection. Had used another fruit producer prior to that and was disappointed with their service. Never been disappointed with blackmoor service or the quality of the fruit trees/bushes.
