Dwarf rootstock fruit trees 4 for £15

There is a 10% off code which is working too, I'll post it on the relevant board in a minute.

Also the fruit trees are going in your basket at £4ish each if you go over the 4 for £15.

They don't seem to mention what root stock the trees are on but I think by the following sentence in the description, it implies that they're on dwarf root stocks (or semi-dwarf) and therefore good for pots:

"The rootstock restricts the growth of the tree, so there's a maximum yield of accessible fruit from your apple tree and no need for ladders or climbing."

btw, just checked my bank statement and have been charged correctly

I emailed them about the rootstock and they said:

Our mini orchard tree are grafted onto a dwarfing root stock M9. The biggest these trees can grow is up to 8-10 ft tall, you can however keep them smaller by planting them in pots or pruning them down.

I emailed about rootstock as well, they replied.

Pear rootstock Quince C
Apple rootstock M26
Peach rootstock Torrinel 24/Mont Clare
Plum rootstock Torrinel 24/Mont Clare

They have taken correct amount out my accont.

All we need now is the trees, I also ordered these.

Sorry to be thick, but what do you need to do with the ones that are not self-fertile?

Get it a mate
Seriously, you grow two of them or if someone next door has one, that usually works as well.
