Just got my email from Lidl, starting next thursday
Fruit trees £3.99 2 for £7
described as 2 years old and 87cm. Sound a bit small to me but certainly cheap.

Sorry to digress Lawrence but where is the nearest Lidl? I know where the Gillingham Aldi is but would like to have a looksee when I'm next in Medway.

The nearest Lidl to you is in Maidstone I think, next to Matalan.

yeh they are cheap, i bought mine for about 6 quid each from netto about 3 years ago and they fruited for the first time last year, oh and i bought them about that size aswell, they grow fast, mine are about 8ft at the moment - and thats how i want them to stay, so i give them a trim every year.

thye have cheap fruit shops in nearly all of the shops at this time of the year, morrisons, aldi, lidl ect

Oh dear, I don't do Maistone (too many roundabouts and one-way systems!).
Ta anyway.

Then the next nearest is Gravesend. (Near the big ASDA)

Copying and pasting it now! 

Just the standard reminder to check rootstocks before planting what becomes a huuuuge tree in an allotment or in a small garden.

Good point about rootstocks, it never worried me before, but I would be interested if anyone found out what they are.

I've just left our local Lidl with 2 cherries, 2 plums and 2 peaches under my arm, they do seem a bit small - but at that price, I'm willing to take a punt!!!

Oh and I got 3 20L bags of potting compost for 99p a bag!!!

There's one in Broadstairs Auntie if that's not too far. It's just down the road from Westwood Cross on the Margate Road, so pretty accessible.

Thanks Hesse but a bit of a drive for me. I go to Gillingham every couple of weeks so was hoping there was one there. Ta anyway.
