Fruit Trees etc. at Aldi

Thank you for that Dawnsaunt! I will go there this Thursday! I have bought many plants from them, and none have let me down yet!

yes i saw all these dawn when i took johnny for his weekly shop, good bargains i thought, no room for fruit trees though ;o(

Thanks for the info. Dawn I haven't the room for anymore trees but I will go and have a peep at what else they have x

~ thanks Dawn!

Thanks for the info Dawn. There isn't an Aldi near here lol :( - Never mind. It's nice when people are so thoughtful as to share information like this.

Did you see the mini cold frame that they have as well Dawn?Ido like their plants and allways check their specials.

I did Mavis, yes. I bought a couple from there last year - aluminium ones. They were selling them off so I got 2 for around £30

Havnt got an Aldi near us... but im going to get some seed trays from wilkinsons tomorrow.... i bought my silver birch tree from Morrisons a few years ago and its coming on well..

Oooh have to have a look Dawn was thinking of a few more fruit trees for allotment, had a flowering cherry from there a few years ago which is doing really well.

M and S are doing 2 for £6 instore,blackcurrants etc, but probably a lot smaller?~

They've got fruit trees in B&Ms about same price.

Tescos have fruit trees too! I got a nice plum tree there for £7. Planted it in just about the last space! The trees all seem to be about 1m tall and i think they are all the same price.

Thanks for the info Dawn, did not know Aldi had a website.?

Aldi and Lidl have websites and all the special offers are on there - its worth just checking to see what's coming up. I got some pots of crocuses yesterday from Lidl for 49p instead of £1.69, there's around 12 bulbs in each pot. Past their sell by date but they'll be great next year.

You did well, I shall keep an eye on their websites in future, so thanks Dawn.

Its worth popping on their websites Dotty - they often have gardening things and plants. I got the potting tray today with the 40 pots and the seed tray propagators. They also had really good quality bird boxes but I resisted those.

:-))))

We bought some fruit trees from Aldi, all prospered, BUT don't take the labelling as gospel. I chose a Bramley Seedling to go with the others. It turned out to be a Spartan dessert variety! They buy up the nursery oddments and repack them, so mistakes can easily happen on leafless twigs.

Hi Mooncat, I'll watch out for what you've said. Funnily enough we had some trees a few years ago free from the council that should have been crab apple, I'm sure they're Discovery, lol.
