To be selling at that price, they've got to have contracted for thousands, so hope there's some left.

If they're doing thornless blackberries, grab them. Big friut, and plenty of, with zero scratches.

Been and purchased, and planted a Bramley and Discovery apple tree.
Then got told off, as the Mother-in-Law has a Discovery in her back garden. Just can't win.

Well, been back to Aldi in Radford this time, and bought another Bramley plus Gala, a plum tree and William's pear tree.

planted 2500 coxs in the old man's orchard back in 1980, some bugger who bought the orchard ripped them all out 15 years later when they were in their prime 🙁

I think you will find those are only sold in Nigeria. Infact, they will even sell you - for ''free'' (60/40%) a security box left in the Central Bank by the late finance minister.

20 foot, more like 8, commercial orchard, keep trees small to allow for croppie carrying out picking duties, and twas a big orchard. Did you know when the trees are in bud, to protect them from frost damage ,you irrigate the trees so that the water freezes on the buds and the act of freezing causes a temp rise therefore protecting the buds!! never plant fruit trees so you cover the graft on the stem.
