A guide to choosing the right size
Blackmoor Nursery is one of very few Nurseries in the UK offering gardeners the opportunity to buy Cordon fruit trees direct from our Nursery.
All orders are despatched in one delivery. If your order contains both bare root and container grown plants then we can only despatch when all plants are ready.
Cordon fruit trees can be planted at 2-3 feet apart.
Bare Root = Field grown trees that have been freshly lifted and supplied with no soil around the roots. Only available during the dormant period November-May.
2 Year Cordon = A two year old tree that has been pruned back in the first winter to form a Cordon shape. Generally trees will be 150cm in height with multiple side branches that have been pruned back.

delivery charges
Collection - If you would like to collect your trees then use this option. Note the collection is from the Wholesale Nursery office between Monday-Friday only. Please allow 1 working days for your order to be processed prior to collection date.
We are not a Garden Centre or retail Nursery. Orders can be placed via our website and the collection option can be selected at the checkout. Your order will then be ready for you to collect during our normal opening hours which are Monday-Friday 07.30-16.30. Our plants are grown in fields that can be 2 miles away from our office so it is not possible to just turn up and select your own trees.
Delivery Charges - The delivery charge is worked out from the weight and the size of the plant. We have several rates that apply to UK mainland addresses. A delivery charge of £9.95 is for all single tree orders. £11.40 if more than one tree except in the case of the Espalier and Fan trained trees where this charge is a maximum of £40.00. The lower postal rates range from £2.80 - £5.70, will be applied to smaller orders of the lighter plants like currants, raspberries, gooseberries, blackberries, asparagus and strawberries although larger orders will go into the £10.00 rate. Once you have put together your order the delivery charge will show before payment. All orders are despatched in one delivery.
To take advantage of a promotional code or gift voucher this must be entered into the redeem code box at the checkout. Discounts cannot be given once an order is completed and any codes have not been used.

Cordon Fruit Trees
Apples and pears have traditionally been grown as inclined cordons for hundreds of years. The latest idea is to grow vertical cordons to save space in the garden. These trees are also known as upright Cordon fruit trees. We supply the highest quality Cordon fruit trees and plants and pack them with great care. Fruit tree growing guide click here>
