18 Jul, 2025
Best planted in winter, deciduous fruit trees arrive in-store from early June to July. Get them in the ground now to set them up for strong spring growth and tasty harvests throughout the year. No matter your space, there’s a fruit tree for you. Whether you’re planting your first dwarf apple in a container or planning an orchard out the back, now is the perfect time to get started. Your future self — and your taste buds — will thank you!
Dwarf Deciduous Trees
Perfect for small spaces and easy maintenance, dwarf deciduous fruit trees offer all the flavour and seasonal beauty of their full-sized counterparts — just in a more compact form. Growing to around 1.5 to 2 metres tall, they’re ideal for pots on balconies, small courtyards, or tight garden beds where space is at a premium. Their smaller size makes them easier to prune, net, and harvest, meaning less work and more reward. Despite their petite stature, these trees can be incredibly productive, offering generous yields of apples, peaches, nectarines, apricots, and more. With careful selection and the right care, you can even grow multiple varieties in a small area or stagger your harvests across the seasons. Whether you're short on space or simply want to keep things low-maintenance, dwarf fruit trees are a smart, versatile choice for modern gardens.
Our Top Varieties
With so many different varieties to choose from, there’s a deciduous fruit tree to suit every preference. Each variety has its own strengths, flavours, and culinary purposes, so here are a few of our favourites that will be hitting our stores this winter.
