The fruit trees we planted on 17th March to preserve and extend the old orchard that was there will need caring for over the next couple of years.They will need watering in dry spells and brambles must be kept back (about as easy as controlling Triffids!) We have given people the individual responsibility for looking after ‘their’ tree to give them a better chance.The varieties are Wild Pear, Greengage, Victoria Plum (that’s mine!) Wild Crab Apple, Quince- Champion, Apple- Ashmans Kernel, Apple- James Grieve, Apple- Bramley and Conference Pear.
