There’s nothing like the taste of home-grown fruit, but if you’re short on space, deciding which tree to choose can be difficult and this fantastic collection of columnar fruit trees will make that decision easy for you.
With these three Columnar fruit trees you will have an abundance of delicious and juicy Apples, Pears and Cherries, all grown and ready to be easily picked in your own garden. Developed to have a naturally compact and columnar habit with no branches, they have been bred, rather than pruned into a unique upright shape, so it will maintain its form without the need for special training or pruning.
In this collection your will receive:
- 1 x Cherry ‘Queen Mary’ Columnar Tree – Producing simply stunning spring cherry blossom that in July is followed by large, dark red and aromatic fruit that’s just begging to be eaten.
- 1 x Pear ‘Decora’ Columnar Tree – Beautiful and delicious brown fruits that are firm and juicy and ready to pick from September and beautiful blossom in the spring.
- 1 x Apple ‘Bolero’ Columnar Tree – Sweet, crisp, and juicy, medium sized apples that are ready to pick from September, perfect for eating fresh or using in your cooking.
Self-fertile and growing to just 2m in height after 5 years, the fruit from each tree is so easy to harvest as the it naturally occurs on small spurs close to the main stem instead of on branches. Being very productive fruit trees, they also make spectacular ornamental trees that when grown in a large pot. Superb as patio plants, they will look wonderful displayed either side of a doorway or garden gate where you can really appreciate their lovely spring blossom.
Supplied as a collection of 3 bare root trees (1 x Apple, 1 x Pear, 1 x Cherry), ready to plant, growing to 2m in 5 years.
Care Information
- On receipt, soak the roots in water for at least two hours (overnight is better). If you can’t plant straight away, they should be fine for up to a week if left in a cool, dark, frost-free place – keep the bag around the roots with some water inside.
- Dig a hole twice the width of the roots, forking over the bottom to loosen the soil, and add some good quality fertiliser such as Blood Fish & Bone (wash your hands afterwards!).
- Aim to plant at the same depth as the soil mark on the trunk.
- Holding the tree or plant upright in position with one hand, slowly backfill the hole with soil, and gently shake the plant, so the soil falls back around the roots.
- Use your heel to compact the soil around the plant to ensure good contact around the roots.
If you’re planting into pots, place some old rocks, stones or gravel in the bottom of the pot for drainage and ballast. - No special pruning is required, but If side branches form, remove them in winter.
