    Argh I wish we had an Aldi, Lidl or Morrisons - but no just a Tesco. I've just bought a Raspberry plant from Wilkos (they had no fruit trees though) - hoping that works out, its just soaking before being planted now.

    are they quite tiny for that price? It doesn't sound a lot for a decent sized tree and if you buy them too small it takes years for them to amount to anything.

    Car paid in full straightaway.
    Two properties fully paid. Wohhoooo!

    Anybody know what varieties are they.
    Very interested in planting a couple of cherries or apples in the garden but have no idea how to.
    Do not know whether to plant 2 or 1 of each (self pollinating or not) or which one is easier to plant and has better survival chance.

    Thanks
    I wanted to thankyou a million times but its a shame that I can press the button just once :T

    Not sure of exact price but walked past Wilkinsons today and they had them, about 5 foot tall, for around £7

    I'm looking for a Victoria Plum tree - anyone know if the Tesco ones are that variety? My nearest branch have them in stock, but couldn't tell me the variety when I phoned.

    They had 2 varieties when I looked today and one was a Victoria!! There were only a couple of each in the Newbury Branch today.

    Tesco in Warwick had loads of fruit trees - by the main entrance - including a dozen or so Victoria Plum trees, all at £7. They are a good size - 5 ft or so, and look far better than the ones in pots I had been looking at in various garden centres for around £16.
