Planting & Care

A beautiful, compact tree with fragrant pale pink blossom in spring.
Produces delicious, top-quality sweet almonds with soft shells.
Harvest your own almonds in late September.
Self-pollinating, so you only need one tree for a good crop.
Thrives in a sunny, sheltered spot, perfect against a south or west-facing wall.
Grows to 5 x 5m but is easily pruned to fit smaller gardens.
Enjoy fresh almonds straight from the tree or use them in baking and desserts.
Expertly pruned before dispatch to encourage a strong, bushy shape.

Species: Almond
Flowering Time: Spring
Flower Colour: White / Pale Pink
Harvest Time: Late September
Position: Full sun
Soil: Any fertile, well-drained soil
Hardiness: Fully hardy
Habit: Upright, bushy
Eventual Spread: 5m
Pruning: Prune in winter
Fertility: Self-fertile
Uses: Eat fresh or use in baking

Planting: Can be planted at any time of year.
Soil: Prefers fertile, well-draining soil. If planting in clay, improve drainage by mixing in horticultural grit or perlite.
Position: Plant in a sunny, sheltered position. A south or west-facing wall is ideal.
Hardiness: No winter protection is needed, but if late frosts are forecast in spring, wrap the tree overnight with horticultural fleece to protect the blossom.
Pruning: Pruning is best done in winter. After planting, cut the young tree back by one-third to promote a bushy shape. In later years, prune to create an open centre, removing any dead or unproductive wood.
Pest & Disease: Generally disease-free. May be affected by leaf curl, where leaves blister and curl. Pick off infected leaves as they form in spring; new growth should be healthy by early summer.
