Cydonia oblonga Champion Quince Tree for Sale Online UK

Cydonia oblonga Champion Quince Tree for Sale Online UK

Cydonia oblonga Champion, or Quince Tree Champion, has so many desirable qualities that it is difficult to list them all! From its delicious autumn fruits, to its lovely spring blossoms, and its small size suitable for any space, this lovely fruit tree will fit in anywhere! Cydonia oblonga was a favourite fruit tree in the ancient Mediterranean, where it was cultivated by the Greeks and Romans. The first records of Quince being grown in the UK are from 1275 when Edward I planted four at the Tower of London. Cydonia oblonga Champion was bred in the late 1900’s in the United States, and is one of the most dependable Quince Tree varieties. In early spring, the dark green, leathery leaves emerge, followed by the blossoms in late May into June. The pale pink single flowers, similar to apple blossoms, are scattered over the crown, followed by fruits which are green but turn a golden yellow in autumn. When placed in a bowl in the house, the fragrance of even one ripe quince will perfume the entire room.Hardy in most parts of the UK, Cydonia oblonga Champion will grow to a mature height and spread of just 2 metres in 5 to 10 years, but can easily be pruned in late winter to maintain a smaller size. Like most Quinces, Cydonia oblonga Champion is self-pollinating so you do not need to plant more than one variety.Plant Cydonia oblonga Champion in a sheltered position in full sun, in moist but well-drained sand, clay or loam soil with an acid to neutral pH. This variety will do well in very wet soils. Since it is not tolerant of salt, it should be protected from sea winds in coastal regions, but can be grown easily in cities, as it is very tolerant of pollution. As Cydonia oblonga Champion is deer-resistant, it can be grown without special protection in country locations.The small size and ornamental qualities of Cydonia oblonga Champion make it a lovely addition to an informal cottage or small garden, and since it will do well in wet soil, it can be planted next to a pond or stream. Cydonia oblonga Champion, like all Quince Trees, will give you not only the beauty of its spring blossoms, but a bountiful harvest of fragrant, ornamental fruit in autumn! Lots more to choose from in our fruiting trees section. Tip: Cydonia Oblonga is the family of fruiting quinces grown primarily for their fruit. The ornamental or flowering quinces are a different classification and known as Chaenomeles – e.g. Chaenomeles Superba Pink Lady.

Malus Domestica Benoni Apple Benoni Early Dessert Apple Tree

Malus Domestica Benoni Apple Benoni Early Dessert Apple Tree

Malus Domestica Benoni or Apple BenoniMalus Domestica Benoni is a medium-sized early-fruiting dessert apple tree which is very suitable for smaller gardens. Self-fertile and hardy, this lovely fruit tree will fit into a variety of locations! Introduced in Massachusetts USA in 1832, this heritage apple variety is a good choice when you only have room for one apple tree, as it is self-fertile. The fragrant, white blossoms in mid-spring will attract bees to your garden as they do the necessary work of pollinating. The fruits develop early, being ready to pick by August and into September. The round, medium-sized apples do not all ripen at once, allowing for an extended period of harvest for fresh eating. The skins of ripe Malus Domestica Benoni apples are yellowish with a red blush, and the crisp, sweet flesh has a slight acid tang. They are best eaten fresh and will only store for a week. They are not suitable for processing.Hardy in most parts of the UK, deciduous Malus Domestica Benoni can grow to a mature height of 5-8 metres in 5 to 10 years. As with all apple trees, they need to be pruned in late winter before blooming, or in early July after fruit set. Thin the fruits soon after they first develop to obtain larger apples. While Apple Benoni is reliably self-fertile, you will get a bigger yield with another tree from pollination group B nearby. This variety tends to alternate between larger and smaller harvests from one year to the next.Plant Malus Domestica Benoni in full sun or partial shade in a sheltered position in moist but well-drained sand, loam or clay soil with a neutral pH. You can prune this apple tree to keep it to a suitable size for a smaller garden, where it will provide summer shade in addition to its spring blossoms and autumn fruit. It is also suited to training as an espalier, cordon or fan against a wall or fence, making it a perfect living privacy screen for a rooftop terrace, balcony, courtyard or patio. Malus Domestica Benoni is also a good choice for an informal country garden where it has room to grow to full size. As part of a small mixed orchard this fruit tree will benefit from proximity to pollinating partners, as well as providing an early to mid-season ripening apple.

If you’ve ever noticed a tall dramatic shrub with feathery foliage and a spray of pom-pom yellow flowers it’s likely to be a Mimosa. Acacia Dealbata can grow to a height of ten metres but it’s easily pruned if you have a smaller garden. Its leaves are fern-like grey-green individual feathers that are evergreen and look attractive even without its dramatic flowers. In late winter or early spring fluffy yellow balls appear on the branch tips from January to April. They are highly scented and attractive to early-waking pollinators. The RHS has given Acacia Dealbata the Award of Garden Merit AGM for its attractive nature and reliability.How Hardy Is Acacia DealbataAcacia Dealbata is hardy in warmer parts of the UK such as coastal areas.

It suits the back of a flower bed against a south-facing wall, or as a specimen tree in the lawn.You can grow a Mimosa in a container if you re-pot it as it grows in size. Alternatively you can grow an Acacia Dealbata in the conservatory. How To Care For Acacia DealbataAcacia Dealbata will grow outdoors in neutral to acid well-drained soil. A sheltered location with full sun is best for bright blooms and healthiest growth. As they grow Mimosa becomes hardier, but young specimen will require frost protection.You can prune a mimosa lightly at the end of the flowering season, but do not leave it years before cutting back heavily as this can prevent flowering and damage the shrub. Dig well-rotted manure around it roots in the winter and water young specimens in hot spells. Mature Mimosas rarely need watering as they are drought tolerant. Acacia Dealbata shrubs are garden show-stoppers in bloom. If you want a shrub that will mature into an attractive evergreen tree and provide a glorious burst of bright yellow after a dull winter Mimosa is for you.

Malus Domestica Delcorf Apple Delcorf syn Delbar Estival UK

Malus Domestica Delcorf Apple Delcorf syn Delbar Estival UK

Malus Domestica Delcorf or Delcorf Apple is synonymous with Delbar Estival. This is a mid-season dessert apple tree. Created in 1956, in France, this apple tree is the result of a cross between Golden Delicious and Stark Jonagrimes varieties. This mid-sized, spreading deciduous tree produces heavy crops of sweet, crisp apples.Late to flower, blossoms emerge in May, completely covering its crown. Pale pink once they unfold, the flowers fade to white before they drop. They have a pleasant scent and are irresistible to beneficial pollinators, which is why this apple tree won the Perfect for Pollinators badge. The fruit follows in the autumn and can be picked from the tree in late September. The Apple Delcorf fruit is greenish yellow, flushed with red, somewhat larger than standard varieties. The taste of the juicy apple flesh is very sweet, honeyed and with hints of aniseed.Easy to grow and to care for, Apple Delcorf prefers loamy soils, well-drained and medium fertile. This variety can be planted in full sun and partial shade, but growing it in a sunny spot will encourage a more abundant crop production. However, if allowed to crop too heavily, this cultivar can become biennial bearing. To ensure this cultivar yields fruit each season, thin out the excess apples early to mid-summer.Since Malus Domestica Delcorf is not a self-fertile plant, you will have to plant a second apple tree of a different variety nearby for cross-pollination. In case you do not have enough space in your garden to plant more trees, you can rely on apple cultivars in your neighbourhood or pollinating insects.  Fully hardy in the United Kingdom, this dessert apple tree can survive even if the temperatures drop to 20 degrees below zero. Although quite robust, Apple Delcorf will appreciate sheltering from late frosts, as they can damage its blossoms. For its outstanding qualities and good constitution, Malus Domestica Delcorf received the coveted Award of Garden Merit by Royal Horticultural Society.In addition to fruit thinning, this apple tree will appreciate routine pruning. The method of pruning will depend on the shape of the tree, but, as a rule of thumb, pruning once a year is sufficient to keep the plant in optimal shape. Compact, with a lovely natural habit, this apple tree is grown for its decorative value as much as for the edible fruit it bears. Once fully mature, this tree will be around 4 to 8 metres high and across.
