This is a great small tree that is perfect for a small garden or patio space. A gift that keeps on giving (literally) as the Brown Turkey Fig Tree produces lovely sweet fruit that is ready for picking at the end of Summer – early Autumn. They are great for making tasty treats such as fig jam, pies, and tarts or simply enjoying them as they are.

It is a fast-growing tree that does require pruning every year so would make a great gift for someone who doesn’t mind a tree that needs a bit of TLC. A hardy tree that grows well in the British climate but will need to be protected in cold winter and wet weather. A great gift to give this Christmas.

Bay Trees make a lovely Christmas tree present. An evergreen grown for its glossy green leaves, yellow flowers, and black fruit. An elegant tree that looks great in planters and enhances the front of your home. Another bonus is that it’s an easy tree to look after so will work well for those who don’t have a lot of time to spend caring for and maintaining their plants. It’s easy to grow and only needs general pruning in spring and autumn but can also be pruned in summer if planted in pots or planters. 

Another tree that will need protection from extreme cold and wind and should be moved inside during the colder months. Another benefit is that the leaves can be used in all kinds of recipes such as adding to stews, curries, soups, and more. 

With Christmas in its name, it really makes the ideal gift to give this season. The Apple Christmas Pippin tree has a pretty shape with a tall trunk that becomes gnarled with age. It produces delicious apples that have a sweet, crisp, and juicy flavour and has a display of blossom in spring that opens white from pink buds followed by green oval leaves.

This tree is also very easy to grow so is great for beginners. The apples store well after harvesting so next Christmas expect a delicious apple pie or crumble. A dwarf variety, this can also be kept in a pot on a patio or is also suitable for small garden spaces.
