We've unearthed a little gem here for you – the perfect patio fruit tree for smaller gardens. In fact, its breeder, renowned British fruit grower Will Sibley, thinks it's the best patio fruit tree you can grow.
Quinces have fallen out of favour – and perhaps out of flavour, too. Yet their sweet fruit make great jellies, jams and sauces, and they have the most beautiful pink blossom. Hardy and self-fertile, it really is an easy winner.
This superb quince is destined to stay small, so works well in a big pot on the patio or terrace. The variety itself is naturally compact, and has been grafted onto a very dwarfing rootstock. Will found this little gem in the former Soviet Union!
After 3 low-maintenance years, you should get up to 50 tennis ball-sized, sweet yellow fruit each summer, so dig out those traditional recipes and enjoy old-fashioned quinces once again.
Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.
Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.
We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.
Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.
Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.
Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
