Apple Trees

Fruit Trees, Nut Trees and Fruit Bushes

If you are going to plant a tree or bush, then it is going to be there for some years. So it's well worth spending some time looking at the different varieties and going for something that will be productive and providing you with a good crop in years to come. Time spent to prepare the ground properly will repay you many times over.

Apple Braeburn (Clone Helena)

Crisp and juicy Braeburn is one of the best-selling varieties in Britain and can now (thanks to this new clone) be grown very successfully in the UK, where the climate is particularly suitable. Helena is 10 days earlier than other Braeburns making it particularly good in gardens. Pick from mid October and store for up to 4 months
