Fruit for the garden

We are fruit tree specialists, and so we can advise you on the ideal variety and type of tree for your garden according to the circumstances. Considerations that need thought include the type of soil, exposure to prevailing winds, and tree distances. Other things to bear in mind include pollinators - cross pollination is essential for cropping - and the size of the mature tree. We can select the right rootstock so that the tree becomes a suitable size. In any case, all our trees are carefully selected for health and cropping ability.

A number of fruit trees in a garden can become a very attractive feature as well as producing fruit. We can also provide advice on the use of ornamental trees in combination with the orchard area. Trees such as mountain ash, walnut, hornbeam, red oak, copper beech or prunus of various varieties are all good companions to orchard trees. Our team has the skills and experience needed to achieve the right balance between production and natural beauty, in accordance with the requirements of each individual situation.

As well as supplying the trees, we can also provide a comprehensive planning and tree care service. We will give advice on all aspects of top fruit trees (apples, pears, cherries, plums, quinces, peaches, apricots, walnuts, cobnuts, hazelnuts etc.) and soft fruit (black currant, red currant, loganberry, strawberry, tayberry, gooseberry etc.) with personal discussion by phone if required.
