Andy Howards' - The Heritage Fruit Tree Company is helping to save our fruit tree heritage. Over 200 varieties of Heritage Fruit trees in stock including apples,pears,cherries,plums and other top fruit and soft fruit. And the Deddington Pippin (discovered', named and propagated by Andy in 2007) as featured on the recent BBC4 Apples - British to the Core programme www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUAJ0F1oH-M (Starts at 10mins 52 secs but whole programme is worth watching!! -) The Heritage Fruit Tree Company is on a mission to bring back traditional varieties of apple, and other fruit, many of which are now endangered. They launched ‘The Heritage Fruit Tree Company’ to make tasty,rare and unusual apples including the Deddington Pippin available to the public and to help the conservation of our national fruit heritage. We have searched out and hand-grafted dozens of regional heritage apple tree varieties, including delicious dessert apples ( The Deddington Pippin) excellent cookers, and dual purpose apples that can be eaten or cooked. We are also providing a wide range of vintage cider apple varieties to meet a new interest in home cider production. All of their apple trees can be supplied in various sizes M27/M9/M26/M106/M111/M25 including a miniature form that can grow in a large tub or garden border, reaching only six feet and yet still bearing up to 25lb fruit, with first crops within just two to three years. All trees that are grown by the Heritage Fruit Tree Co are grown without chemicals in locally sourced soil association approved compost and are hardy outdoor propagated. Pot grown they can be planted at any time of the year.
We also source other UK grown hardy bare root fruit trees and bushes from some of the best UK growing nurseries which can be supplied as bare root or container grown. To guarantee requirements for autumn planting please reserve your trees by July
