Additional plant information:

3x Malus domestica 'Sweet Summer'® special apple tree. We have an apple that ripens the fruits unevenly over a period of 6 to 8 weeks! The tree first has green apples then they get a blush and then, when they are ready to eat, they turn yellow. So you only pick the yellow apples and the rest you just leave hanging! The taste of the apple is strongly reminiscent of 'Golden Delicious'.

1x Crabapple Malus Evereste, cross-pollinator. Malus evereste is an ornamental apple tree. This tree produces beautiful blossoms and in the course of the summer orange-yellow ornamental apples that turn bright red in the autumn. A jewel for your garden. Do you have an apple tree that produces blossoms but no or little fruit? Place this Malus Evereste within a radius of 10 metres from the apple tree and you will notice that Evereste is an excellent cross-pollinator!

2x cherry bush – 1x Porthos & 1x Athos. Unique products: Prunus 'Athos'® and Prunus 'Porthos'® are the very first cherry bushes that can be planted in a pot or in the ground. The cherry bushes produce many delicious, very dark red cherries that can be harvested in June/July, depending on the weather conditions. The cherries are medium-sized and sweet in taste. Athos® and Porthos® are the result of approximately 60 years of research into crossbreeding. As far as is known, it is the only cherry plant in the world that stands on its own root without breeding. The plants are self-pollinating and bear fruit within two to four years after receipt, depending on the conditions.

3x Lonicera caerulea 'Larisa'. Lonicera caerulea 'Larisa' is also called Mayberry or Honeyberry. Blooms in early spring, so watch out for frost. The Larisa has an elongated sweet and sour berry that is rich in vitamin B and C. Self-pollinating, but with other members of the same species nearby the plant will produce more berries. The blossom is loved by bees and the berries by birds. The shrub is winter hardy and loses its leaves in the autumn. The berry grows on all types of soil, the best location is in the sun or light shade in a moist place.

1x Pyrus communis 'Conference' pear tree – self-pollinating. The conference is the best-known pear tree thanks to its sweet, juicy, firm pears that have a long shelf life. The Conference pear tree gives a lot of pleasure all year round. In the spring it gives a lot of white blossom, in the autumn the numerous fruits. This pear tree can grow to a maximum of about 4 meters.

3x Ribes nigrum 'Titania' blackcurrant. This blackcurrant is a very productive berry species. Ribes nigrum 'Titania' is mainly known for cassis that is made from this berry. This variety produces large numbers of juicy berries in large bunches when young. It is very winter hardy and resistant to late frost. This plant attracts bees and butterflies during flowering. Another name for the ribes nigrum 'Titania' is also blackcurrant.

3x Ribes rubrum 'Witte Hollander' white currant. This variety is one of the oldest currant varieties. It grows quickly and has the tastiest berries and high yields. The berries ripen early (often as early as July) and are sweeter than red currants. The more sun the sweeter the berry.

3x Ribes rubrum 'Rovada' red currant. 'Rovada' is one of the best currant varieties at the moment. Rovada ripens late (end of July/beginning of August) and produces long bunches of shiny red berries. This shrub produces on both 1- and 2-year-old wood. We recommend that you protect the plants from birds by the time the berries are ripe.
