Prunus armeniaca 'New Large Early'
NEW! Bred in 1873, this hardy variety was introduced to the UK from America and does particularly well in our cooler climate. It is one of the earliest varieties to ripen. The large oval fruits are pale peach-yellow in colour. The flesh is orange-yellow and has a delicious, sweet, tangy flavour.
Pollination: Self-fertile.
Season: late June/July.
Amelanchier alnifolia 'Thiessen'
NEW! This is one of the earliest ripening varieties of saskatoon, producing exceptionally large fruits (up to 17mm in diameter). The berries are purple and have a sharp, tangy flavour. Excellent for cooking. The bush is very productive and reliable.
Rheum hybridum 'Fulton's Strawberry Surprise'
This outstanding new variety was voted the ‘best flavoured rhubarb’ in RHS Wisley Trials. The plants are strong growing, producing eye-catching vivid red stems.
Sorbus pseudohupehensis 'Pink Pagoda'
Originating from Canada, this outstanding variety is a close relative of our British native rowan. It produces large open bunches of beautiful vivid pink berries in the autumn that slowly turn pale pink and last well in to winter. The berries not only look lovely, they provide winter food for hungry birds. Clusters of creamy white flowers adorn the branches in the spring and are popular with bees. The large blue-green pinnate leaves are very attractive and turn to shades of red and orange in the autumn. Suitable for most soil types, but prefers a moist, free draining site.
Height x spread in 10 years: up to 6m (20ft) x 3m (10ft).
