Nottingham Medlar (Mespilus germanica 'Nottingham') is a self-fertile Medlar tree, this meaning only one tree is required to produce a crop of fruit. Medlars come from the eastern Mediterranean and are becoming increasingly popular as they have a delicious, acidic flavour, hence this demand! The fruit should be given time to ripen before eating. The result of this action is to make the fruit , which is rich in vitamin C, sweeter. To make the most of a Medlar, make sure you provide it with a planting position in full sun and a good, freely drained soil. Type of Medlar: Eating/Cooking Time of Picking: October Self-Fertile/Not Self-Fertile: Nottingham Medlars are self-fertile so there is no need for another Medlar to aid pollination Our Nottingham Medlar trees are supplied at a height of between 1.25 and 1.50 metres in a container for year round planting. All Nottingham Medlar trees are supplied on a Quince A rootstock giving a mature height of around 3.5 metres. We will include a message card included at no additional cost if required.
