Some gardeners believe older varieties of fruit trees are always superior to new ones
- often simply because they are older. It is not a view we share & we thoroughly recommend this trio of outstandingly good pears. You will be impressed by the quality & flavour of the fruit & the cropping ability of the trees. This Best of Modern Breeding fruit tree collection
Includes:: 3 fantastic fruit trees: Pear Goldember (Delsanne) We believe pear Goldember (known also by its breeding name of Delsanne) to be the pear of the future & Sainsburys have just hailed it as the pear that solves the "notoriously tricky" problem of how to eat a pear
- it's shaped like an apple so easier to hold! We love it because it is smooth skinned, rather round, khaki coloured & stores to Christmas from an early October picking. The flesh is sweet & juicy with no grit whatsoever. It is now a commercial pear grown in the UK after 12 years breeding work in France. Pear Goldember is self fertile & crops from early in its life. We thoroughly recommend it! Plum Beauty Plum Beauty is a cross between an Asian & a European plum. It is just about the earliest plum you can grow in the UK, being ready to pick in mid July. Not surprisingly, it also flowers early
- around the second half of January
- but the blossom is not damaged by frost, which is something of a surprise! Expect a heavy crop of violet fruits from plum tree Beauty which have an outstanding taste & texture. We love their sweetness & juiciness. One of our team claims Beauty's flavour is similar to that of Juicy Fruit chewing gum! Apple Cybele Apple, Cybele is a splendid variety, named after the Mother Earth goddess Cybele. It is one of the best mid-season apples, the fruits are ready for picking from the tree in September. The firm, sweet, white flesh of apple Cybele has a most attractive red skin. The blossom from the apple tree tends to resist frost, leading to a fine crop of scab-resistant apples. SAVE £19!
