La description
Beautifully trained and highly ornamental, our Malus domestica (Apple) Espalier trees offer the perfect balance of practicality and elegance. Expertly trained into a horizontal tiered framework, these trees create a striking architectural feature while producing an abundance of delicious homegrown apples. Ideal for kitchen gardens, courtyards, terraces and along walls or fences, espalier apples are a fantastic choice where space is limited, allowing you to enjoy fruit production without compromising on style.
Throughout the seasons, an espalier apple tree provides year-round interest. In early spring, the bare framework bursts into life with fresh green foliage and masses of delicate pink-tinged white blossom, attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators. As summer progresses, the blossoms give way to developing fruit before ripening into crisp, flavourful apples in late summer and autumn. Once the leaves have fallen, the beautifully structured framework remains, adding architectural interest to the winter garden.
Each tree has been professionally trained to ensure a well-balanced, symmetrical shape that is both practical and visually impressive. The horizontal branches maximise sunlight exposure, encouraging healthy growth and excellent fruit production while making harvesting and pruning straightforward.
We offer a selection of premium apple varieties, each chosen for its flavour, reliability and growing performance. Whether you're looking for a traditional dessert apple, a versatile cooking variety or an all-round favourite, we have a range of options available to suit different tastes and planting schemes.
Our espalier trees are available in 4-tier and 5-tier forms, with multiple sizes available to accommodate a variety of garden designs and project requirements. Whether creating a productive kitchen garden, defining a boundary or adding an elegant focal point, these trees combine timeless beauty with exceptional functionality.
