Our family apple trees will grow to approximately 3.5 meters in 20 years, family pears to approximately 4 meters in 20 years. Family fruit trees are available here in containerised form. There is often a choice of varieties. Our family fruit trees are available as apples or pears and each tree boasts 3 varieties.For those without the space for a family apple or pear tree there is another option providing more than one variety on a small tree. Dual cordon apple trees are grown with one variety grafted on top of another. These trees can be grown at an angle against wires or a fence, or upright and freestanding as a pillar tree. Unlike the family trees these dual cordons are grown on dwarfing rootstocks with all the benefits of a family fruit tree. With the correct pruning our dual cordon apple trees will grow to approximately 2 meters in 20 years with a very minimal spread.
