Bare-root fruit trees are supplied without a pot of compost, usually during their dormant period between late autumn and early spring. They can be a more affordable way to establish a productive fruit garden or allotment. November is a brilliant time to plant many bare-root fruit trees in the UK, provided the soil isn't frozen or waterlogged. 🌱 TOP TIPS: 🍐 Keep bare roots moist and protected from wind and drying out. 🍎 Plant as soon as conditions allow, or temporarily heel them into soil if planting is delayed. 🌳 Choose a suitable location with enough room for the mature tree. 💧 Water thoroughly after planting. 🌱 Keep the graft union above soil level and mulch around the base without touching the trunk. We'll be sharing more updates as our new trees establish and start growing! 💬 QUESTION: What's your favourite fruit tree to grow?
