Description
- Thought ‘Braeburn’ couldn’t be improved on? Hold my apple juice…
- Meet ‘Braeburn Hillwell’, basically it’s Braeburn 2:0. An improved sport (mutation) of ‘Braeburn’ with better flavour, colour and suitability to the UK climate.
- The improvement has resulted in a perfectly-sized, crisp-red eating apple with wonderful aromatic flavour which grows on a compact, low-maintenance tree.
- Harvest your apples from October to early November. ‘Braeburn Hillwell’ is an excellent keeper that can be stored right through to March.
- Self-fertile; will produce good crops even with no other trees nearby.
- Awarded RHS Plants for Pollinators status for its appeal to bees and other pollinating insects.
- Best grown in a sunny, sheltered spot.
- M26 Rootstock – Max size H3m x W3m
- MM106 Rootstock – Max size H4m x W4m Rootstocks restrict the size of a tree to make it more suited for an average gardenMORE
- Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE
- Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch.
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
