This fruit tree collection consists of 3 popular self-fertile varieties, suitable for growing countrywide, 1 each of the following:
Apple 'Cevaal'
An aromatic Cox-like apple which is sweeter, more disease resistant and ripens earlier than Cox. It is is one of the easiest and most reliable of all apple varieties producing heavy crops of crisp, red flushed dessert apples. Many growers regard Cevaal as the finest tasting early apple. If you've only got room for one apple tree in the garden, this is the variety we recommend. The tree is compact and an excellent choice for the garden. Suitable for the north. Season: Sept - Oct. Self-fertile.

Pear 'Concorde'
An excellent pear often grown commercially and suitable for most locations. Raised from a cross between Doyenné du Comice and Conference, it has inherited the best attributes from both its parents. The medium-large pale green fruits have a smooth, juicy flesh with a sweet pleasant flavour. Suitable for dessert and culinary use. Crops heavily and reliably from an early age. Season: Oct - Jan. Self-fertile.

Plum 'Opal'
An excellent early dessert plum, similar to Victoria but with a superior gage-like flavour thanks to its parentage (Oullin's Golden Gage). It produces heavy crops of medium-sized reddish-purple, thin-skinned fruits with golden flesh and a superb sweet flavour. One of the most reliable varieties. Can be grown in the north. Season: late Aug. Self-fertile.
