Medlar Nottingham - 1 Tree

Product Description

Considered the best flavoured Medlar, producing a heavy crop of medium sized fruits with a interesting caramel flavour. Medlar trees have a flat topped weeping habit, with large white spring flowers & attractive leathery leaves that turn to shades of golden orange in autumn. The russet coloured, apple shaped fruits are excellent eaten with wine, port & cheese, although are more commonly used to make into preserves or the Victorian delicacy Medlar cheese. Grafted onto a Quince A rootstock, to create a productive tree with moderate vigour. Nottingham is self&45;fertile & therefore does not require a pollination companion. Medlars will begin to fruit 3 or 4 years after planting. Root wrap plant supplied. Height & spread: 4m &40;13&41;. Rootstock: Quince A. Please note, fruit trees will be despatched as early as possible this autumn, once they have gone dormant & are in the ideal condition for lifting from the nursery & for transplanting by our customers
