Fruit and nut mix
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to current growing conditions some species in this pack may be shorter than we usually expect and fall outside of approximations given.
The fruit and nut mix pack has all the trees you need to create your very own garden kitchen. Plant the trees in this pack and in a few years you could be sipping homemade sloe gin, setting crab apple jelly, making cherry jam or drinking hazelnut coffee with fruits and nuts from your own garden. This pack will also make your garden a beautiful place to be, with stunning blossoms and catkins, and will provide nectar and shelter for insects and other wildlife.
Each pack contains four trees: one hazel, one blackthorn, one crab apple and one wild cherry
Hazel trees produce delicious hazelnuts during the autumn months.
Sloe berries come from the blackthorn tree and can be used to make sloe gin.
Crab apple produces flowers with attractive colours which grow into fruits that can be used to make jelly.
Wild cherry displays beautiful clouds of blossom in spring (sometimes referred to as cherry blossom) and its bright summer fruits bring a splash of vivid colour.

Purchase size and growth:
Due to current growing conditions some species in this pack may be shorter than we usually expect and fall outside of approximations given.
These trees are cell-grown saplings, ranging from approximately 15cm-60cm in height. Cell grown trees can be planted all year round in most situations as long as they are given the correct care. Please be aware that depending upon the time of year you receive your sapling (particularly early spring) it may not look very perky upon arrival. Please do not worry - once it has been planted it should pick up quickly.
UK and Ireland Sourced and Grown (UKISG):
Every sapling that we provide is UK and Ireland sourced and grown to minimise the risk of importing and spreading tree pests and diseases. Seeds are collected and stored in the UK and Ireland, and they are all coded and batched so that we can track each individual tree.

The images in this product listing show the saplings bundled and wrapped. This plastic wrap is made from LDPE (low-density polyethylene) and is 100% recyclable, we encourage users to recycle them when you are ready to plant your trees.
