Patio Fruit Tree Trio contains the following varieties in 9cm pots:
- Apple 'Mini Gala' - A well known supermarket variety with a prestigious RHS AGM. Apple ‘Mini Gala’ is a firm favourite for its rich, sweet flavour. The small, thin-skinned, red-flushed fruits make delicious eating apples picked straight from the tree in October. They are also excellent for pressing into a sweet juice that blends nicely with sharper varieties. Surplus crops can be stored through to January.
Pollination Group 4
This variety is partially self-fertile. For the heaviest crops it is best grown with another variety. If you only have room for one tree then make sure that a neighbour has a tree close by that can act as a suitable pollinator.
- Cherry ‘Mini Sylvia’ - Cherry 'Mini Sylvia' is a compact variety producing delicious sweet cherries. This dwarf cherry tree is perfect for the patio where it makes a great focal point in spring as white cherry blossom cloaks the branches.
This variety is self-fertile and does not require a pollination partner.
- Plum ‘Mini Black Amber’ - This heavy bearing Patio Plum produces plenty of rounded, firm purple fruits with a deliciously juicy texture. Plum 'Mini Black Amber' has a complex sweet flavour that is superb when eaten straight from the tree.
This variety is partially self-fertile. For the heaviest crops it is best grown with another variety. If you only have room for one tree then make sure that a neighbour has a tree close by that can act as a suitable pollinator.
