Dwarf fruit trees are smaller growing trees with full size fruit and are great for growing in small gardens and containers. With different fruit varieties maturing at different times, your mini orchard will produce delicious fruit throughout the summer which you can pick fresh from the tree at maximum ripeness.

Growing your fruit at home, you can minimise the use of pesticides and fungicides used in its production (unlike store bought fruit), as well as having the sheer pleasure of growing your own delicious, healthy food.
