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.

‘Rootgrow’ mycorrhizal fungi

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.
