Apples For The Smaller Garden

Apples For the smaller garden

Coronet apples ideal for pots Cornet is an Irish group of fruiting apples bred for their compact habit and fruiting ability even as young trees, so much so that they are guaranteed to fruit in their first growing season.
Cornets are ideal for the smallest of gardens and are even suitable for growing in pots.
There is a range of varieties to cover a fruiting period from July to November and offering a range of flavours from sweet to tangy.

All the cornet varieties have been tested for the Irish climate and proved very successful in all trails.
Popular varieties include the beautiful Katy, red skinned apple packed with flavour; the tangy jonagold is popular for the super flavour and good holding qualities.
Egremont russet and fiesta remain excellent choices for something different.
Cornet should be planted now and will fruit this summer giving you instant results.

Horkys tip: plant three varieties to give good cross pollination.
