FAQs

How tall is the tree upon arrival?

The tree is supplied at approximately 6ft in height.

Can this tree survive winter outdoors?

Yes, this is a fully hardy outdoor variety suitable for the UK climate.

Do I need a large pot for this tree?

If you choose to grow it in a pot on a patio, we recommend using a container with a capacity of 100 litres or more.

What type of soil is best for this tree?

This variety is adaptable and suitable for most soil types.

How is the tree delivered?

Each tree is shipped securely in a bespoke, high-quality, and sturdy live tree box via trusted couriers.

Is the tree grown in the UK?

Yes, our trees are professionally grown and selected at our nursery in Norfolk.

Troubleshooting

Leaves turning yellow or drooping after delivery

This is often a sign of transplant shock or moisture stress; ensure the soil is moist but not waterlogged and provide a temporary stake for support if needed.

Slow growth in container-planted tree

Check if the pot is smaller than the recommended 100 litres; if it is, the tree may be root-bound and would benefit from being moved to a larger container or the ground.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides an instant 6ft height for immediate garden impact
  • Suitable for a wide range of soil conditions
  • Can be grown successfully in large containers on patios
  • Fully hardy outdoor variety resistant to local climate fluctuations
  • Expertly cultivated by a professional UK-based nursery

Cons

  • Requires a large pot (100 litres or more) if kept on a patio
  • Substantial size makes initial transport and handling heavy
  • Full potential height is only reached when planted in the ground

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Upon delivery, remove the tree from its bespoke shipping box carefully to avoid damaging the branches. If planting in the ground, dig a hole twice the width of the 12-litre pot and deep enough to accommodate the roots, ensuring the tree is planted at the same depth it was in the pot. For patio growing, select a high-quality, free-draining compost and a pot with adequate drainage holes. Water the tree thoroughly after planting and maintain consistent soil moisture, especially during the first year of establishment and throughout dry summer months. For container-grown trees, regular feeding during the spring and summer will help encourage vigorous growth and fruit development.
