Fruit trees are single stem (trunk) plants which can grow to large sizes and will often require more space than soft fruit bushes. Fruit trees are available in a variety of types (apples, pears, plums and cherries to name but a few) and rootstocks to suit many different space requirements - from dwarf trees growing to two metres, patio trees which can be grown in containers and large, full-size orchard trees. Also available are fan trained and espalier fruit trees which are great for growing against a fence or wall where space may be tight.
