Just unpacked in here. Too windy outside to leave as is incase they fall over.

Massive great stakes to give them support as well, not those that came with the tree as in photo

They say not to let them fruit the first year so will have to wait and see how good they are at cropping. We got them from Blackmoor Nurseries in Hampshire with a very fast delivery time.

Update now 3 months on


I was worrying if these new apple trees would survive all this wet weather. So just been out to check and very tiny red tips on the branches have got a bit bigger





So fingers crossed so far so good as they say
