Dear Dan, I own land in the Lot et Garrone, France, we are building at the moment and in autumn will need to landscape with trees/fruit trees and mature hedging, then we wish to create a business offering container grown shrubs and trees ie, Magnolias & Acers. It is our intention to act as wholesaler, buying in our stock from either Holland or ?,
In this I would appreciate your advice or recommendations. Also do you supply to France ?
yours J. A.
Dan,
I have just read your blog about “Suntan” and I have to agree with you that it the best tasting apple ever: crisp, juicy and sweet with a touch of clean sharpness. For some years my late husband and I would travel to an Crapes Orchard at Marks Tey, Essex, to collect two boxes. They were stored in my Hertfordshire garden shed and enjoyed over Christmas and well into the New Year. I have never seen this variety sold in any supermarket or shop. Sadly, I only have a small garden so I am unable to grow it for myself. However, for anyone who has space this is a wonderful apple worthy of all discerning apple lovers. Long may it survive!
