BLUE BERRY BUSH  - Bluecrop
This superb variety of BLUEBERRY is ideal for the small garden, growing only to 4-5ft, and producing an abundance of super-food blueberries in the summer months. Wonderful red stems in winter, and white flowers in July. This is a full flavoured variety that can be eaten straight of the bush.These Blueberry hybrids are FULLY HARDY and should be planted in full sun for the maximum crop.

CHERRY  TREE  - Stella - SWEET EDIBLE VARIETY

Goji Berry - Lycium barbatum
The Tibetan Goji Berry, from the Himalyas, is a small red berry that has been grown and eaten in the Himalaya region for thousands of years. The goji berry is known as the 'MIRACLE BERRY'  for its claimed medicinal properties that are widely published on the internet, but no claim is made for them here! However, what we can say about them is that they contain 11 essential and 22 trace minerals, 6 essential vitamins(!), 18 amino acids, and proven antioxidents (used to keep the skin young). Goji berries are reported to have the highest vitamin C content of any fruit when eaten fresh. They are VERY HARDY - our own have been down to -8C this winter. We have some 2litre plants ready now. These are UK grown, disease free, and ministry tested plants.

PEACH TREE  - Prunus Red Haven
The 'Red Haven' variety of Peach is the one of the most hardy, most reliable fruiting peach tree for the UK climate. Mouth-watering, large juicy fruit, white skinned with a bright red flush. , are produced in quantity f rom this strong growing peach tree. There is nothing quite like eating Peaches straight from the tree - unlike Supermarket peaches which are picked while unripe and ripened artificially, if you leave the fruit on until ripe you get such an amazing rich flavour.
