Hi all!
I'm pretty new here and have just started a veg patch in a garden in London. The patch is a practice run for our move to the country in the next few years. Ideally, we'd like to be able to harvesting hard fruit in our first year in the country, so we're actively looking for places with fruit orchards but they're quite hard to come by. So, I wonder if it's worth getting some potted trees this year in preparation so that in 2 years they'll produce fruit for when we've moved to the country and they'll give us harvest while the trees we plant in the country are still growing in and unproductive.
My questions are:
1) Is there any point in doing this?
2) How well will they travel?
3) Once grown in the pot, would there be any point in planting them in the ground once we've moved?
Sorry for the long post! Just hoping that some of you talented growers here can give me some advice!
