Fruit trees, nuts & soft fruit
Fruit trees and soft fruit bushes are best planted in Autumn so that plants can get established. The thrill of picking one's own fruit can be easier to realise than you might imagine. From large apple trees to strawberry plants that hug the ground, fruit is available for every garden. Alpine strawberries can even be grown in a pot. Some fruit plants are ornamental, others, just grown for the bounty of their produce. Select plants that are suitable for the environment in your garden, and the space available. ; Top tip: Most fruit need sunshine to ripen properly so choose an open, sunny spot in your garden to grow the juiciest, sweetest fruit.
