This delightful cherry variety not only tastes sensational, it will look spectacular in your garden, wherever you plant it. Once the gorgeous spring blossom has faded away, 'Bigarreau Napoleon's' very large, slightly elongated fruits ripen to a warm, golden colour, blushed with deep, cherry-red, providing a beautiful contrast with the lush green foliage in mid-summer. When you pick one of these cherries from your own tree and pop it into your mouth, a rich sweetness will explode from the creamy flesh - simply tantalising for the tastebuds! The flavour is sweet but not as sugary as dark sweet cherries such as 'Stella'. They taste so divine that you will want to pick the whole lot and eat them straight away - so it is a good job it is such a heavy cropper! Growing your own cherries at home is not only deeply rewarding, it will also save you an absolute fortune compared with supermarket prices. And, of course they taste so much better!
This new variety is the perfect magnolia for a small garden or for patios and terraces, with a neat compact habit that is very easy to grow and care for.In early spring bare stems are smothered in blush pink feathery flowers which open from rose pink buds. The petals are narrow, a little like 'Stellata' but with a beautiful pink tinge to them and an even more wonderful fragrance. What's more, blooms are much more resistant to late frosts than other magnolias.Mid green leaves appear after the flowers, creating a beautiful ornamental tree that will become a feature in your garden all year long - especially in this standard form, creating a ball of flower and foliage atop a long straight stem. Ideal for adding height to displays, this standard form adds structure to beds and borders and is perfect for creating a feature in a decorative pot on a patio.Easy to care for, it needs little pruning except a light trim to keep shape. It likes a sunny spot but isn't too fussy, tolerating most soils and, being fully winter hardy, you needn't worry about it over the winter.A twist on the classic Magnolia tree, this standard is wonderfully unique, eye-catching and a winner for any garden.
