The highlights

  • Juicy, jammy and jolly nice!
  • A highly-productive variety
  • Makes a heavenly crumble
  • Harvest from July to August

Description

  • Highly prized for both the ornamental value and the edible fruits
  • Deep, glossy red-black fruits with a unique, glorious taste.
  • Heavily cropping deciduous tree
  • Attracts bees and other pollinating insects
  • Can also be grown in containers for up to 15 years, if watered carefully during the summer months
  • A highly productive variety with heavy crops of large black red fruits
  • Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPotsâ„¢. 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

Best plants you will ever get online

I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.

Highly recommended all round

Delivered quickly, perfectly packaged and the tree was in excellent condition. Really healthy and taken to the garden with no problems. Can't recommend highly enough. 5 stars isn't enough!

Satisfied customer

Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.

A really good quality tree

A really good quality tree, delivered on time and very well packaged. But the emailed planting advice and supporting information was what really impressed me. Thoroughly recommended.
