More about apple trees

Apple trees are generally easy to grow, and because there are so many apple varieties there is invariably a good choice for almost any growing situation.

Apples display perhaps a greater range of flavours, appearance, and texture than any other tree fruits. This diversity makes apples a particularly satisfying fruit for home cultivation. Without much difficulty (or space) you can grow a number of different apple trees which will keep a family supplied with fresh apples from mid-summer to late autumn, and with a good spread of flavours and uses.

Our apple trees are grafted on rootstocks which will control the mature height of the tree - so you can choose the size of tree that will best suit your garden or orchard project.
