Product Description

The perfect solution when two varieties are required and there is space only for one tree. With the added bonus of the pleasing effect of seeing two varieties on the same tree, here you have the perfect pairing of Cambridge Gage Greengate and Marjorie's Seedling. The pale green of the Cambridge Gage contrasts beautifully with the purple-black skin of Marjorie. Both are hardy vigorous growers with good disease resistance and hold the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Grafted onto St Julian A rootstock. Two year old bare root trees on 100cm stems supplied.

Growing at a glance…

Young trees must be watered thoroughly and sprinkle with fertilizer each spring. You can also mulch in April with rotted manure or compost around the base of the trunk. They should be planted in well sheltered locations.Dual fruit trees are suitable for planting in most types of moderately fertile, well drained soil, although they do not like acid soil. If possible prepare the ground some time in advance of planting. Open out holes and plant with enough space toaccommodate the roots without cramping them. Plant in a sunny location (but well sheltered) as they do not prosper too well in the shade. Make sure that you plant with a stake, as this will be needed for at least five years to help support the tree. Begin weed control prior to planting and keep a clean ring around the plant (with a radius of approx 24inches). Also perfect for containers.
