Almond Robijn

Almond 'Robijn'

Prunus dulcis, Prunus amygdalus, Almond Oil Plant, Sweet Almond
This beautiful sweet almond makes a highly ornamental tree bearing showy, light pink blossom in spring. Grafted on a semi-dwarfing 'St Julian' rootstock, Almond ‘Robijn’ will form a medium sized, spreading tree with excellent resistance to peach leaf curl. In areas with mild, frost free winters the soft shelled nuts will form if from the third year after planting, and can be harvested from late august. Although perfectly hardy, almond trees require a frost free winter and a warm dry summer in order to produce a crop. As Almond ‘Robijn’ is grafted onto peach rootstock it is advised not to plant near peaches as hybridisation may occur resulting in bitter nuts. Almonds are self fertile but pollination is improved when more than one almond tree is grown. Height and spread: 3.5m (11’).

Estimated time to cropping once planted: 2 years.
Estimated time to best yields: 3 years.

Chestnut : Sweet Chestnut Regal

Sweet Chestnut 'Regal'

Castanea sativa, Spanish Chestnut, European Chestnut

Sweet Chestnut ‘Regal’ makes an excellent choice for the larger garden as it is more compact than many varieties, growing to 5m (16’) tall in 10 years. An ideal specimen tree for lighter soils and even tolerates coastal conditions. This attractive tree has shiny green leaves and showy, fragrant mid-summer blossom that is followed by tasty sweet chestnuts in October. Harvest the nuts as they fall to the ground - they can be stored through to January for roasting or making purees.


Sweet Chestnut ‘Regal’ is self-fertile and therefore does not require a pollination companion. Sweet chestnut trees will begin to produce nuts three to four years after planting. Height: 5m (16’). Spread: 4m (13’).


Estimated time to cropping once planted: 4 years.
Estimated time to best yields: 6 years.
