Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains. Vitis Vinifera Blanc Climber

Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains. Vitis Vinifera Blanc Climber

Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains, or Vitis Vinifera Blanc, is one of the oldest wine grape varieties. Still grown today, this grape vine is an interesting and fruitful addition to your garden.Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains originated in the Mediterranean region in the times of the ancient Greeks and Romans. It is a popular white wine grape variety in France and Germany. This climbing vine produces an early crop of bunches of small, round, fragrant fruit which can be used as table grapes or in wine-making. At maturity they will be golden yellow or light brown. The young leaves are bronze-red and shiny when they emerge in spring, turning a medium green and then brown before falling in late autumn. Vitis Vinifera Blanc is winter hardy in most of the UK, and will grow vigorously with some support. It can extend up to a metre in its first year. Like all grape varieties it will respond to pruning with increased fruit production. In the first year restrict the growth to one main stem, pinching out side shoots at one leaf. Cut the vine back to three buds when winter comes, and in the second year let 2 shoots grow. Do not allow the vine to fruit until the third year, when you can let 2 lateral shoots produce 6 buds each, growing up into shoots which will produce fruit. In future years, do the same with the two strongest shoots, cutting away the rest, and let 8-10 buds each grow upwards and produce bunches of highly fragrant, delicious grapes. Our vines are between 5-7 years old, plant vines 1.5 metres apart. Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains grows best in full sun in moist, freely draining fertile loam or clay soil with a neutral ph. They do not do well in sandy soil. They will need a sheltered location as their early-setting buds are vulnerable to a late frost. Since all grape varieties need to be trellised, Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains is a natural choice for training on a south-facing wall where it will receive the protection it needs, as well as creating interest with its vine structure, leaves, and the decorative, fragrant fruit in late summer and early autumn. The heavy scent can be enjoyed when the vines are planted near a seating area. Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains has been cultivated for thousands of years, and with good reason. Its fragrant, delicious grapes are still prized today both for wine-making and fresh eating, and its vigorous vines will add interest to your garden.

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.

Myrtus Communis or Common Myrtle for Sale Online. Myrtle Plant, Myrtle Tree, Myrtle Bush

Myrtus Communis or Common Myrtle is an evergreen flowering shrub native to the Mediterranean region. Placed in a flower bed or border, as a hedging or screen, along wall-side borders or in a city & courtyard Garden, the Myrtus Communis adds a nice bushy specimen to your garden space.A member of the Myrtaceae Family and the Genus Myrtus, Common Myrtle is a small to medium height shrub, or can be managed as a small tree. They have particularly aromatic leaves, rather leathery in nature, and ovate in shape. They produce solitary, bowl shaped white flowers with 5-petals of about 2 centimetres in length. When pollinated, the shrub will finish off with fleshy purplish-black berries, which can be edible.Hardy in the UK to Zone H4, Myrtle prefers full sun in a sheltered position from cold dry winds. When grown under glass, provide filtered sun with good ventilation and a loam-based compost for best results. In order to achieve maximum bloom set, a long hot summer is best. It is considered hardy across most of the UK apart from inland valleys, at high altitudes, and in the central and northerly locations. A harsh winter air below -10oC will scorch the leaves and result in some stem die back.In terms of its preferences regarding soil textures, Myrtus Communis will do best in moist but well drained soils, from chalk to clay to sand to loam. Near neutral pH is optimum, slightly acid or slightly alkaline are fine. Over the course of its 10-20 year journey to ultimate growth, Common Myrtle will achieve a height of 2.5-3.0 metres and a similar ultimate spread, from 1.5-3.0 metres.Of interest with Common Myrtle is that it is attractive to wildlife, butterflies, and pollinators. It actually contains a substance claimed to have an antibiotic action against chest and other ailments. The fruit’s aromatic flavour makes it edible fresh or dried as a food flavouring. The dried fruits and flower buds can be used to flavour syrups or add to sauce. The flowers actually have a sweet flavour and can be added to salads.Generally pest and disease free, Common Myrtle will persist for many years as long as your location provides protection from extreme cold. Once established, Common Myrtle has little or no need for regular pruning, but if you do prune it, it’s usually best to do it in mid to late spring.

Salix Helvetica Swiss Willow Low Growing Willow Shrub Online

Salix Helvetica or Swiss WillowThe Salix Helvetica, commonly called the Swiss Willow, is a hardy low-growing shrub that grows to a height of 60 centimeters with a width of 40 centimeters. Willows, whether large trees or shrubs, are famous for their ease of care and reliability. The diminutive Swiss Willow is no exception. It is exceptionally hardy and will grow not only at high altitudes but also in wet low-lying terrain. In its native habitat in the Swiss Alps, the shrub is well-known for being a survivor that can tolerate even the harshest weather conditions. The leaves of the Swiss Willow are ovate to lanceolate in shape. The leaf boasts a greyish hue on the top side while the underside is silverish. The leaves are covered in a fine, furry covering that provides them with protection from the effects of harsh sunlight. In the spring months, Salix Helvetica develop bright yellow buds that later form into eye-catching silver catkins. The Salix Helvetica is a true survivor and is ideal to plant in problem areas of the landscape where other shrubs may struggle or fail. It tolerates a wide array of soil types and conditions. The only place it does not do well is in hot, desert-like regions. Plant this deciduous shrub in an area of the garden that has dappled or full sunlight. It will withstand shade but will not produce ample buds or catkins in such a planting location. Keep the soil around the Swiss Willow moist but not overly wet. It prefers to not have a dry root system, even after it is established. Ideally, it will do best when planted in rich, fertile soil but will also grow in less than ideal conditions. It even survives in coastal areas and sandy locations where other shrubs often fail to thrive. The Salix Helvetica grows in a rounded, compact form that rarely requires any trimming. After flowering, it can be trimmed a slight bit to maintain its form or size. However, it is unnecessary to trim the shrub if you do not need to and you are happy with its overall appearanceThe versatility and steadfastness of this tough little shrub won it the coveted Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit (AGM). It is a valued addition to any garden or landscape. Once established, it will live and thrive for years with little or no care. The shrub's small size lets it fit into any style of landscape. It can also be grown in containers on patios, balconies, or decks.
