If you think it cold at the moment, why not think towards next Spring and summer .


Have you a warm sunny wall or fence in your garden, why not plant a Peach or Nectarine or even an Apricot and pick some fruit late summer next year.


St Bridgets sell 2 varieties of Peach Peregrine and Rochester, Nectarine named Lord Napier and the Apricot Moorpark.

They have lovely blossom in the spring but protect the blossom if late frosts are forecast.

They are best grown as fan trained against a wall or fence rather than free standing make sure the soil is well prepared so it holds water through the summer.

Secure the branches to wires that are fixed to the wall.
