I'm normally dubious of Groupon but this says you get 5 trees for £29 + p&p and most notably that trees will be pretty sizable, around 5 feet tall so not tiny little seedlings.
I looked on unwins for comparison and it does seem like the original price sounds quite realistic. Any gardeners care to chip in?

I noticed on the original site they claim this sells for £99 but surely that's a bit of a mark-up specially for groupon?

£20 per tree would be about right in a garden centre. My MIL bought an offer from the sample place as the Groupon one and gave us the apple and pear as she already has them. They are really lovely; got them in March and both flowering now in very large pots. She says ours are doing a lot better than her plum and cherry which is what she got the offer for. Still, HTH!Sealed Pot Challenge #1666 - up for raising as much as poss0
