A lovely old heritage variety of almond introduced to the UK in the 18th century Produces high quality sweet almonds in soft shells Covered in delicate pink blossom in spring Harvest from late September Self fertile - you only need one tree for a good crop Grow in full sun on a south or west facing wall, or in a greenhouse or conservatory Grows to 4 x 4m but can be pruned to fit any size of garden Almonds can be eaten straight from the tree or used in baking and desserts 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
