It's the simple things
I looked out of the window this morning and saw buds on the first tree I've ever planted. An Apple tree called Egremont Russet which was planted in October last year. Can't say how thrilling that was to see....
Thinking of planting more fruit trees/bushes.... Any recommendations? I have lots of fence to cover and a south west facing garden.

A Concorde pear
It's self fertile but another pear in the right pollination group will improve the crop.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Will check it out....
The cordons I planted in the middle of winter are now budding and some are in leaf. I share your happiness Bluebelle, it is lovely to see new life in the garden.
We have Concorde pear, cherry, plum and three different apples.
I love stepping out into the garden see whats popping up, as its a new garden its exciting to see whats in the ground. xx
If you have the space a crab apple will be the perfect pollinator for your apple tree.
