Ideal world Fruit

[Rob the Radish]

Has anyone seen the offer on the ideal world shopping channel ?

4 trees, one apple, one pear, cherry and plum, 50 quid delivered.

Sounds good to me, was thinking of getting them, are they any good or should i look at something else, if you have not seen them have a look online at Buy for the Home - Craft - Beauty - Fashion - IdealWorld - IdealWorld

You also get four pots, fish, blood and bone meal and root grow.

Seems pretty good value to me. Works out at £12.50 per tree. You could probably pay a good few quid for the pots if you bought them separately.

At the end of 2009 there was an offer in a newspaper and I got 4 fruit trees for £30.00. Just the trees nothing else.

I suppose it depends on whether you want to grow them in the pots or plant them in the ground.

Aldi, Lidl etc will no doubt have their £4 fruit trees in again ....

Sounds good! I dont seem to get much sucess wih the aldi ones though....

I will let you all know, i had some money burning a hole in my pocket so decided to get them.

I was planning to have them in the pots for a year or two (see how they do) and maybe plant them at the bottom of my garden after then and re-use the pots.

I bought the those trees when there was an offer for 5 fruit trees with the buckets, blood fish & bone & root stuff. Due to (i think) the courier pinching them (they had record of them getting to courier but no further) Ive only just received them after ordering last year. Planted them in their pots on friday as moving in march. My son checks on them every morning to see if they have grown yet!
We can both experiment to see if they work!!

I believe Ideal World and Garden Bargains are sister companies. See other threads ref Garden Bargains. Trees from Aldi etc are fine if you get them when they first come into the stores.
