Nottingham Medlar Tree

A fantastic base for fruit jams

The Highlights

    • Winner of RHS award of Garden Merit
    • Gnarled and twisted trunk, rivalling the look of an olive tree
    • Fruit needs to 'blett' before being eaten - over-ripening to the point of softness
    • Makes a fantastic base for fruit jams
    • A small tree of great character, let a little snippet of medieval England fill your garden with charm
    • Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE
    • Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch.
    • Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming "leggy", and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
