The benefits of plant friendly mycorrhizal fungi are well documented including improving plant establishment. The fungi pass mineral nutrients onto the plants, likewise the plants feed the fungi sugars which enable the fungi to spread & search further. Effectively the plants root area is vastly increased.

150g sachets contain enough to treat 5-8 trees. Sprinkle the granules onto damp roots so granules attach themselves. Catch any granules on a sheet beneath so they can be reapplied or used again.

We often recommend this RHS book by the former Fruit Officer at RHS Wisley Gardens so we thought we would supply it. It covers the growing and training of all that we have available and more.

Dedicated chapters on enviromental matters – climate, siting fruit and soils & drainage. Followed by soft fruit sections – Raspberries, Blackberries, Blackcurrants, Red & White currants, Gooseberries, Grapes & Strawberries.

The latter part of the book covers all types of growing tree fruits – Apples, Pears, Plums, Cherries, Quinces & Medlars. Also covered are more tender fruits – Peaches & Nectarines, Apricots and Figs.

No photographs but lots of clear line drawings. Do not be disappointed if your training of trees and bushes do not turn out to be as satisfactory as the drawings in the book!

A very comprehensive book
