Ken Muir Growing Guides

Planting new fruit trees, canes and bushes is not a difficult job, but one to get right, if you want them to get off to the best start in life.  

The growing guides consist of extracts from our ‘Grow Your Own Fruit’ book which is supplied FREE with your first tree, cane or vine order.  Customers ordering strawberry plants will instead receive a free copy of the 'Grow Your Own Strawberries' booklet.
