Actually winter and early spring are the best time to plant fruit trees and berries. You will receive healthy, well branched trees from our wide selection ...

The cost of establishment of high-density orchards is still a major constraint on their profitability. The cost of trees and stakes alone for a planting of 3000 trees per hectare is currently more than £8000 at UK prices. Using poor quality, cheaply produced, trees is counterproductive because only large, well-branched trees can give the necessary yields soon after planting.
