At last, what we have all been waiting for! Apricots have previously been able to be container grown, but the results have not been all that great, for these naturally vigorous trees require subsequent hard pruning which then robs them of much of their crop. Isabelle is a compacta type Apricot, claimed to be less vigorous, and tidy in appearance the most compact Apricot compared to standard varieties. Easily kept to only 6′ in height and perfect for containers, smaller borders or the intensive orchard. Rounded orange red finely flavoured fruits, hardy and regular cropper. Highly recommended, will go quickly so early ordering advised. £27.85
Sending a tree through the post isn’t easy, so our parcels are expertly packed to keep your goods in the best condition. There is no surcharge on the delivery of larger parcels/orders.
Tree size as supplied varies but is usually between 3.5′ – 4.5′ on despatch. A few varieties might be slightly smaller, some a little bigger, of course it does vary but this is a good average. WE SUPPLY YOUNG TREES – and are proud to do so. Although we are sometimes requested to supply older/bigger trees, the perceived advantages are outweighed by disadvantages! Older trees take longer to establish and will fruit no more quickly. The young trees we send out grow away and establish so quickly and healthily & often yield within 1 season of planting. Our customers even report fruits the first year of planting! All professional fruit growers prefer to plant young trees rather than older.
Our soft fruit bushes are usually 2 years old.
Everything is stringently graded, grown on the nursery and well packed!
