New Fruit have Arrived

I placed an order for a few extra fruit trees to add to the collection this is what I got 

This Fig tree is a bit different to the normally available Brown Turkey figs trees.

The fruit is attractive with variegated stripes and is self fertile.

It is called Panache also know as Striped Tiger and grows to 1.50m the one I had delivered is only 30cm tall so has some way to go, the fruit can be eaten straight from the tree.

it is best grown in containers and is a late season it will be interesting to see how it develops.

Next out of the boxes was a pair  of apple trees

Malus domestica Baya Marisa also know as Tickled Pink, it was the pink flesh that appealed

Suitable as an eating apple,
but can also be used in cooking properties such as dried apple chips, sliced apple for fruit salad
and applesauce.

 Not only is the skin and flesh red but it also produces red to violet
flowers in spring, again they only grow about 1.50m 

Last out of the box were these 

1 Grape Blue - Vitis Boskoop Glory, 1 Grape White - Vitis White Pinot Blanc

I plan to grow these on trellis across the top of the boundary fence 

We hope to have the fencing in place in a few weeks, I can then get planting these out along with my other fruit trees the fence will be south facing so they should all do well.

All the trees I have arrive are only young ones I am happy to wait for them to grow, I got them from
