A columnar fruit tree is a special type of fruit tree that is bred to have a compact, vertical growth habit, similar to a column. This makes them particularly suitable for smaller gardens, patios or even balconies where space is limited. Instead of growing into a wide tree, a columnar fruit tree grows in a tight, upright form, allowing you to grow more fruit in a smaller area.
The benefits of columnar fruit trees include:
Space saving: Their vertical growth means they take up less horizontal space, making them ideal for confined gardens.
Easy Maintenance: Their compact size makes pruning, harvesting and caring easier.
Decorative: They can also be an aesthetically pleasing addition to your garden or patio. They are often specially bred to maintain an upright shape and are often self-pollinating, making them practical for small gardens.
