The joy of homegrown delights with our apple trees, with favourites like the crisp Braeburn. Or choose a patio apple tree, perfect for a smaller garden! We stock several varieties at Woolpit Nurseries.
Whether you have a spacious garden or just a sunny patio, apple trees are a fantastic way to add both beauty and bounty to your outdoor space. Even if space is tight, apple trees adapt well—many varieties are suitable for growing in large pots or containers, making them an excellent choice for patios, terraces, or even roof gardens. With careful training, they can be shaped as bush, cordon, espalier, or fan, allowing you to tailor their form to your garden’s design.
Homegrown apples are a valuable addition to any garden, bringing crisp, fresh flavour straight to your kitchen for eating, baking, or preserving. No matter your available space, you can enjoy the simple pleasure of picking your own fruit.
Choose a patio apple tree, perfect for a smaller garden! We stock several varieties at Woolpit Nurseries.
Whether you have a sprawling orchard or just a sunny patio, apple trees can be a rewarding addition. Many of our apple trees are perfectly suited for growing in the ground as well as in large pots or containers—ideal for patios, terraces, or even roof gardens. So, even if space is at a premium, you can still enjoy the fresh crunch of a homegrown apple right outside your door. Plus, most apple trees can be trained into a bush, cordon, espalier, or fan shape, offering flexibility to match your garden’s style and your own creativity.
When selecting fruit trees, pay attention to whether your chosen varieties are self-fertile or require a pollination partner. For example:
Apples: Most apples, such as ‘Gala’, require a pollination partner nearby, unless specifically noted as self-fertile. Some, like ‘Cox M27’, are self-fertile and perfect for smaller gardens.
Pears: Some varieties are self-fertile and reliable, while others benefit from a partner.
Plums & Cherries: Some plums and cherries, like ‘Czar’, can self-pollinate, but others will need matching varieties for best results.
Crab Apples and Figs: Many of these—such as ‘Brown Turkey’ fig—are self-fertile, making them easy choices for single-tree gardens.
Pollinators such as bees are essential, so consider planting insect-friendly flowers nearby and avoid using pesticides during flowering season. Also, late frost or wet, windy weather during blossom time can hamper pollination, so choose sheltered spots or varieties known for resilience in your local climate.
By selecting the right combinations and supporting pollinators, you’ll set your orchard up for a fruitful season, year after year.
Wonderful collection of plants, incredible choice of shrubs and trees, everything well priced.

When it comes to planting and caring for your fruit trees, a little planning goes a long way. Here’s your guide to help your orchard thrive:
1. Choosing the Right Spot: Consider your garden layout and the specific needs of your fruit tree before making a selection. Keep in mind that cross-pollinating trees should be planted relatively close to each other. Also, think strategically to prevent fallen fruit from cluttering paths and decking areas.
