’Bramley’, the world's best-known and favourite cooking apple, is an incredibly heavy cropper once established, with high-quality fruits that will store through the winter months. Pick them in early October (before they get over-ripe) and store them cold but frost-free for use until January. This tree is grafted onto a dwarfing rootstock, making it ideal for small gardens and patio pots due to its compact size.
‘Stella’ is a self-fertile, sweet cherry that produces abundant, large dark red fruits, perfect for eating fresh in midsummer. This vigorous grower starts upright but spreads with maturity, often fruiting within 2-3 years.
Take in the lovely scenery of France and Spain as you discover fine gardens and vineyards on this spring cruise. Our exclusive onboard experience includes a welcome get-together, two illustrated talks, horticultural Q&A session, and afternoon tea - all in the safe hands of gardening expert David Hurrion.
