Suggestions for fruit tress/bushes for my new plot.

in Fruit & veg
Having just change 1 raised bed to a plot for fruit trees
I now need suggestions for fruit trees/bushes to fill out the area
it`s about 9ft in length & about 6ft wide.
I would prefer not large trees or bushes that spread out a lot
but more so I would say 4ft in height & a span of no more than 2ft wide.
hope that helps
Topic name should be fruit trees not fruit tress
sorry cant change that maybe a mod can?

I always liked the look of stepover fruit trees, remember though that whatever you chose, and that it should first of all be something that you like to eat, you will have to leave enough space as not to crowd the bushes as most fruit needs lots of air circulation to thrive.
Thank you Barry
my garden is not huge but the top part is for my potatoes & runner bears
whilst the low end houses the raised bed for veg & shortly the fruit trees etc.
yes I like the smallish 1`s
I shall have a think of the fruit I love
thanks for the post.
