Product Description

Ashmead's Kernel Apple Growing Tips.

How to grow a Ashmead's Kernel apple tree in my garden - Our Care Guide for fruit trees will help you get the very best from your tree.

How to plant my apple tree - Our How To Growing Tips section on our website has a video that will show you how.

When is the best time to plant a fruit tree - Container grown apple trees can be planted at any time of the year. Bare Root apple trees can only be planted between the months of November - April.

Planting distance for apple trees - All fruit trees are grafted onto a rootstock. It is the rootstock that determines how big the apple tree will grow into. There is a rootstock guide on the left hand side of all fruit tree product pages that explains this. As tall as the tree will grow into would be the planting distance. Example MM106 will grow to 3-4 metres when mature. So a spacing of between 3-4 metres would be required.

Can I grow a apple tree in a pot - All fruit trees will be happy growing in a large container. A pot around 50-60cm is ideal. There is more information on growing fruit trees in containers in our FAQ page.

How do I prune a fruit tree - Our Care Guide explains the basic principles of fruit tree pruning.

Blackmoor is one of very few Nurseries in the UK offering gardeners the opportunity to buy Malus domestica Ashmead's Kernel apple fruit trees direct from our Nursery. We have one of the largest range of apple trees available for sale online.

Customer Reviews
By Leif on 11th August 2025
"I ordered a bare root tree on an M26 rootstock at the end April, and collected it from the shop a few days later. It’s a nice looking little tree with a very healthy root system. I followed their guide when digging the planting hole, and threw in plenty of well rotted stable manure. It’ll take a few years to establish itself, but so far so good."
