Nottingham is a compact and highly productive variety of medlar, grown for its unique, tangy fruit and attractive appearance. Its small, russeted fruits develop in late autumn and are best enjoyed once “bletted” – softened naturally after harvesting – when they take on a rich, spiced flavour perfect for jellies, cheeses, or traditional preserves. In spring, the tree is adorned with large, white blossom, making it a beautiful ornamental choice too. Nottingham is self-fertile and ideal for smaller gardens, growing well as a freestanding tree or trained form. Prune lightly in winter to maintain its neat shape. Combine with heritage apples or quinces like Meech’s Prolific for a traditional and flavourful orchard collection.
Supplied as strong bare root trees.
