How to Grow Fruit in Small Gardens | Easy, Space-Saving Ideas

Growing fruit in your garden is one of the greatest pleasures a gardener can have and now is a great time to plant fruit trees or bushes. A lot of people think you can’t do it if you have a small garden, but you can! Here’s my guide to choosing the right fruit trees and bushes for a smaller plot. ALAN IS USING: Fruit Trees and Fruit Bushes from Blue Diamond Garden Centres - https://rb.gy/0ehb4p Outdoor dining set from Forest Garden - https://rb.gy/0ihsne Harvington Bench from Forest Garden - https://rb.gy/62ldus If you have a small garden, these fruit trees may be just what you are looking for: Malus Domestica ‘Cox’s Orange Pippin The dwarf variety of this tree grows only 1.5m tall Malus ‘Evereste’ This crab apple tree doesn't spread too wide making it good for a small garden. Duo Pear Tree ‘Conference’ and ‘Bonne Louise’ Another dwarf option but this one is a conference - you get apples and pears on the same tree! If plums are more to your taste the dwarf version of the ‘Opal’ plus tree grows just 180cm tall. If your thinking of growing fruit bushes why not try these: Raspberry ‘Malling Jewel’ I have these in my garden and they give me a fantastic crop of fruit Gooseberry ‘Hinnonmaki Green’ Blackcurrant ‘Titania’ - you’ll only need one bush if you have a small garden but this one gives loads of fruit Strawberry ‘Summer Breeze’ - strawberries are fantastic for small gardens because you can grow them in containers and even towers! This variety also has attractive flowers. ALAN'S GARDENING BOOKS: https://www.penguin.co.uk/search-resu...
