Choosing the right varieties 

In Scotland, getting the right variety for your location is really important for success and we are delighted to help you. You need to pick varieties that reflect the uses you have in mind for the fruit - eaters, cookers or even cider.

Our stocklist is available on our home page  and includes descriptions of the different varieties, plus an order form at the end (a long way back). We have  posted the stocklist as a webpage  - as occasionally people have difficulty with pdfs. 

Because we have so many varieties of trees, and also because Scotland's growing conditions are so diverse, we don't offer an online shopping cart or click and collect.  We can select suitable trees for training into cordon or espalier forms.

​

Expert advice 

​

We like talking to people and making sure that the varieties you are selecting are the right ones for you. 

Often the best way is to ring to discuss your potential order in the first instance -  John is at 0778 606 3918. Or email  a wish list and we'll check availability and suitability.  It is very helpful to have details of the site, photos of the site, and information on soil conditions sent by email prior to the call. (John@Scottishfruittrees.com)  

We have an orchard planning form here which you can fill in and return.

How to order 

​

To order,  look through our stocklist and then email through a  list of what you want, or use our Order  Form .  We will then generate an invoice and send it though to you.

Remember any sundries such as stakes ties and guards required. We can also provide a fair variety of Scottish soft fruit, which are listed.

Typically it takes 2 to 3 weeks from ordering to delivery, but this is subject to weather.
