I'm in the process of turning a great big plot of neglected land into a decent garden, and part of doing that has to be the inclusion of loads of fruit trees!
As a beginer, I know precious little about planting out, spacing and pruning of trees.
I've ordered the trees I want on the rootstocks i want, a dozen trees in all: apple, pear, cherry, mirabelle, greengage, plum.
My quetion is, where would be the best place to plant them?
At the far end of the garden, there is lots of space, but the soil is very sandy, and nearer the house we have very rich soil but limited space. Which would be best? Or does it matter much as long as the trees are fed?
Cheers
