In our view, almonds are one of the ultimate snack foods, so wouldn't it be swell to grow your own? 'Robijn' is an exceptional almond tree variety, producing myriad pink blossoms in spring and superb sweet nuts from the end of summer This showy specimen makes for a wonderful feature tree planted in the heart of your lawn, or trained against a sunny, south-facing wall Whether you eat your almonds fresh or incorporate them into your favourite baking recipes, deliciousness is guaranteed! The nuts are encased in shells which themselves are housed within downy hulls (it's like a set of Russian dolls...) 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
