(July notes..... Very warm
weather lately putting newly planted trees under some stress. Try to
water gently in the evening but don't overdo it, cherries and Sorbus
particularly dislike waterlogging. I am hard at work preparing the
next crop of trees and at this stage am well stocked so theres plenty of
time to think about what you'd like to plant. Be careful not to harm emerging ladybird larva.
They're much needed as there appear to be a larger than usual number of
greenfly out there! There's a photo of a larva on my 'pruning and aftercare' page......end
of July notes). Some 'satisfied customer'
comments....

generations with fruit" (Monty Don). |

Introduction
-
I have a reputation for
growing some of the finest fruit trees and ornamental trees available. All of the trees on this
website are produced by myself, on my own specialist tree nursery. This
means I can maintain a consistently high standard whilst keeping my prices
extremely competitive.
My
fruit trees are to be be found in many and varied locations from Highgrove
House in Gloucestershire, BBC's Gardeners' World (photo left), Queenswood
Arboretum (photo lower right) National Trust properties, schools,
environmentally friendly cemeteries, to many formal and less formal
public and private gardens around our beautiful country.
There is little doubt that a fruit tree is one of the wisest
investments, and each ornamental tree
offers something special too. Every variety has its own distinct
characteristics, and each gives its own commentary on the year, from the
moment the leaves unfurl, and flowers open to yield fruit and berries.
Ornamental trees provide privacy, peaceful
shade and spectacular autumn colour, Each has something different
to offer. Quite simply trees are amazing!

| Ordering -
Simply decide which fruit trees and ornamental
trees you would like and
Order here
or on the bottom link on each page to order. I will then email you my
confirmation & invoice. If all is satisfactory just follow the payment
details on the invoice, in the meantime your trees will be
reserved safely for you.
Larger orders attract generous discounts
shown at the bottom of the
Prices page. You
are welcome to place your order at anytime but please note...
Your fruit and ornamental trees are lifted and delivered
bare-rooted (not in a container) as soon as the leaves fall. This is
the traditional and the best way to transplant fruit trees. They will
establish themselves more quickly than container grown fruit trees.
The healthy, unrestricted root systems soon finding their 'new feet'
and should need little or no watering. Its
better for them, better for you, and better for the environment too!
Lifting and delivering starts in November as soon
as the season allows and continues right through to the following
Spring.

Delivery
-
Your trees are sent
either by our own transport or by my favoured carrier quoting the lowest
price possible as soon as I know your location. Please include your
postcode on the order form. Collection is fine by pre-arrangement. |
Pollination
-
A much written about and often overcomplicated
subject. Rather than confuse with too much information on my website
I would rather let you choose your preferred varieties and then let
me advise if any problems are evident when your order is received. |
I
hope you enjoy browsing through my website and will recommend it to
other tree lovers. I have tried to make it easy for you to navigate and
have steered away from the standard 'shopping cart' type design. If you
have a free moment, click here
