A new mid-season raspberry bred by the Scottish Crop Research Institute, Glen Ample is a truly remarkable variety we are proud to introduce. In trials Glen Ample has ALWAYS outyield ALL other other varieties to give quite amazing quantities of impressive large fleshy fruits blessed with a lovely sweet flavour. This was no doubt inherited from its parent, Glen Prosen. It has a very long picking season, in fact it is not usual to be harvesting fruit from this variety for more than a month. The smooth spine free canes make picking easy and are quite upright, making this the variety to grow if space is at a premium.
It has shown resistance to two types of Aphid Virus Vector. With its impressive yield, very large fruit, spine free growth and lovely flavour Glen Ample is going to be very, very popular. Early ordering advisable to avoid disappointment.
NOTE; Glen Ample is not recommended for the coldest northern areas, and will perform, best with good soil conditions.
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!
