Planting & Care

An exquisite heritage almond variety introduced to the UK in the 1700s.
Yields top-quality sweet almonds with soft shells.
Adorned with delicate pink blossoms during spring.
Ready for harvest in late September.
Self-pollinating, requiring only one tree for a bountiful harvest.
Thrives in full sunlight on a south or west-facing wall, or in a greenhouse or conservatory.
Reaches a size of 4 x 4 meters but can be pruned to suit any garden space.
Almonds can be enjoyed fresh from the tree or used in baking and desserts.
Trees are expertly pruned before shipping to encourage well-shaped, robust growth.

Species: Almond
Flower Colour: Delicate pink blossom
Flowering Time: June, July, August
Harvest Time: June, July, August
Position: Full sun
Soil: Any fertile, well-drained soil
Hardiness: Fully hardy
Habit: An upright tree with a bushy habit
Eventual Spread: Spreads up to 5m unless pruned
Pollination: Self fertile, does not need a pollination partner
Uses: Eat fresh or use in baking

Planting Time: January to December
Planting: Plant in a sunny spot, such as against a south or west-facing wall. Prefers fertile, well-draining soil. If you have clay soil, improve drainage by mixing in horticultural grit or perlite.
Watering: Water well when first planted. If planting in spring or summer, water well for the first few months, increasing during hot or dry periods. If planting in autumn, less watering is needed.
Feeding: Not required, but mixing compost or well-rotted manure into the planting hole will give your tree a good start.
Pruning: Prune in winter. After planting, cut the young tree back by one third to encourage a bushy shape. In subsequent years, prune to maintain an open centre and remove any dead or unproductive wood.
Frost Protection: The tree is fully hardy, but late spring frosts can damage the blossom. If frost is forecast, wrap the tree overnight with horticultural fleece.
Pest & Disease: Generally disease free. Can be affected by canker or leaf curl. If leaf curl appears (blistered, curled leaves), pick off the infected leaves as they form in spring.
