Gooseberries and currants are delicious eaten fresh, freeze well and are perfect for making pies, jams and jellies. They are easy to grow and heavy yielding and although they prefer a sunny position, they will tolerate partial shade. Soil should be free draining. Gooseberries and currants will begin fruiting in the second year and once fully established will produce up to 4.5kg (10lb) of fruit per bush for at least 10 years. Plant 1.2-1.5m (4-5ft) apart with a 1.5-1.8m (5-6ft) gap between rows. Plants are available from late November to late April.

Apple Tree 'Granny Smith'
£25.95Apple Tree 'Granny Smith'This well know variety was discovered in Australia in the 1860s and is grown in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and parts of North America and Europe. In many countries it is regarded as a dual-purpose variety but it requires a long hot summer for the sugars and flavour to develop and is therefore normally only suitable as a cooker when grown in the UK. It produces heavy crops of bright green apples with lighter flecking. The greenish-white flesh is coarse textured and juicy and has a sharp flavour that sweetens in storage. The fruits are perfect for pies and tarts as they retain their shape when cooked. They are also good added to salads as they are less likely to brown than other varieties. The tree is easy to grow and heavy cropping.Buy Now
