    Br = Bare Root Plant

    VAT is not chargeable on these plants.

A beautiful small deciduous tree with slightly arching branches. Masses of pink buds open to scented soft pink blossom, 3cm across, which whitens with age in April and May which attracts pollinating insects. These are followed by a profusion of large, glossy, bright red fruit 2.5cm (1 inch) across. Ideal for use for a tangy, pink crab apple jelly or left for blackbirds or other wildlife to enjoy. Large healthy leaves are dark green and shiny. Height 3 x 2.4m (10 x 8ft) in 10 years, ultimate height 4.6m (15ft).

Br = Bare Root Plant

Bare-Root Plants

Bare-root plants are sold without a pot/soil around the roots. This is a more cost effective and environmentally friendly way of growing plants. To ensure the best plant health we do not store our plants in cold storage, but they are left in our field or plant beds until they are ready for packing or collection.

Items marked Br are bare rooted plants grown from cuttings and are typically 1-2 years old.

Availability

Bare rooted plants are only available when the plants are dormant (typically from late November to March).

If a plant is currently out of stock because it is out of season (for example, bare rooted plants in summer) or we have sold out but we are expecting more to be available you can pre-order the plant. We only charge credit/debit cards when an order is despatched, not when an order is placed.
