- Self-Fertile: Doesn't require a pollination partner to produce fruit but may produce better crops if one is nearby. In most built-up areas, a suitable tree is likely close enough.
- Pollination: Pollination groups relate to when a tree flowers. Trees that flower at the same time can pollinate each other, which can improve yields even for self-fertile varieties. Trees can usually pollinate a group either side of their own.
- Rootstock: M26 rootstock limits the tree's height to a manageable 3m, perfect for average gardens and smaller spaces.
- Eco Pot: Supplied in an EcoPot™ which uses 70% less plastic, is fully recyclable, and reduces root spiraling.
- Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. Container-grown trees need regular watering for the first year until established. Water heavily and less frequently to encourage deep root growth.
- Feeding: This is not a hungry plant and does not require feeding.
- Pruning: Some pruning should be done each winter to maintain a productive shape, improve yields, and prevent disease. Your tree arrives professionally pruned to ensure a good start.
