Moving to the Isle of Wight in 1976 our aim was to provide a full cross section of indigenous fruit for everyone, taking advantage of the longer growing season on the island.
This has been achieved and a full range of top fruit trees and soft fruit bushes/plants are always available in the despatching season, which is from October until mid April. Some plants i.e Grapes, Loganberries etc can also be sent out of season, as some are available in flexible pots (please enquire for details). Ultimate heights and size of top fruit trees is achieved by the use of different Rootstocks. With apple for example it is possible to have an ultimate height of 4ft, 8ft or 16ft so trees are available for miniature gardens to complete orchards!
It has to be said that as we are on the Isle of Wight situated in the English Channel and our Nursery is SW/NE, we are very confident that our trees are well hardened off and fit to go to any destination in the country. Plants are despatched throughout the U.K and many EEC countries.
