Enjoy 'delicious' peaches this summer as 'easy to grow' fruit tree plummets to half-price
Securing a fruit tree to plant in your garden or in a planter on your patio may seem like an expensive venture, but it doesn't have to be. Thanks to this Gardening Express sale, green-thumbed shoppers can currently pick up a delectable fruit tree for half of its normal price, while this offer lasts.
The well-established peach tree, described by customers as a "lovely big plant," would normally set shoppers back £39.99. But thanks to Gardening Express' roll-out of unmissable deals, this tree is now up for grabs for £19.99, saving shoppers a whopping £20.
Arriving at fruiting age, meaning the peach tree is ready to be planted as soon as it's delivered and may start producing produce this season, depending on how well it acclimatises to its new habitat.
Perfect for popping straight into your yard or keeping in a container on your patio, decking, or balcony, the beautifully compact tree is set to be super easy to grow, requiring no pruning. It will only ever reach 1.5-2 metres tall, making it an ideal choice for any size space.
For the best results, place the peach tree in a bright sunny spot and keep it well fed and watered during the growing season.
Specially grafted to create a compact dwarf tree that can seamlessly slot into any outdoor space and will produce masses of delicious, juicy fruit, this peach tree will display beautiful, self-fertile pink blossoms in Spring before the fruits are produced. Expect to be picking in the first year with good care, as these trees have already fruited in Gardenign Express' own nursery.
One customer can't contain their excitement as they leave this glowing review: "My experience wasn't the best as I've ordered a few plants and it took months for them to arrive...but it was in the middle of the pandemic so it must have been **** out there! But boy when this tree arrived...wow it was the highlight of our summer and truly beautiful... can't wait to get another one! And boy...in bloom nearly a year after... gorgeous."
If you prefer to shop elsewhere, Thompson & Morgan has this Peach 'Avalon Pride' for £39.99. Or, if you're after a bigger variety, check out these picks from Primrose or Gardener's Dream where they retail for £79.99.

End of season clearance sale slashes huge palm tree worth £180 to under £60
Thanks to this massive end-of-season clearance deal, green-thumbed shoppers can now add a huge, hardy palm tree to their outdoor space for £120 less - but only while this sale lasts Create a Mediterranean haven in your backyard with an XL palm tree that originates in the French and Italian Riviera. Touted as an extremely tough specimen that grows excellently in artist pots and planters, as well as directly in the soil, this Extra Large Hardy Mediterranean Fan Palm is sure to add a continental twist to our garden or patio - and right now, you can add this beauty in your outside area for less as an end-of-season sale sees it plummet from its steep original price of £179.99, all the way down to £59.99. But you'll need to act fast, this clearance sale won't last forever. Aside from the Trachycarpus, the Chamaerops Humilis is probably the best palm for growing in the UK when it comes to cold hardiness and weather tolerance. This species is experienced in a varied climate and survived the tough 2022/2023 UK winter, coming out thriving, where we experience lows down to -14c some nights. This Mediterranean Fan Palm is a small clustering palm with distinctive, huge green leaves that spread out in an attractive fan form. Providing a luxurious South of France feeling while you're still at home, the Chamaerops humilis produces babies that grow into a multi-stemmed plant, creating a bundle of flourishing palms that get bigger and bushier as they grow. Once established, Chamaerops humilis is tolerant of drought and well-suited to full blazing sun or partial shade. It can also withstand a cold garden or hot conservatory, whether you've planted it in an exposed garden or balcony planters; its versatility and durability mean it will be quite at home no matter where you plant it. What's more, you don't have to be a horticulturist to encourage this palm to thrive, as it's remarkably easy to look after and grow. The Mediterranean Fan Palm is a beautiful plant for any garden. When unpruned, it grows into an attractive shrubby form, while if you prefer to get it pruned, it will grow into a single-trunked tree form that's ideal for keeping in a planter. This palm works perfectly as a centrepiece in any outdoor area, creating impact anywhere it is planted. Touted as a real architectural masterpiece for your collection, why not try it in a roomy container to grace your patio or deck, and even show it off to friends at your next barbecue. It's even ideal to use as a houseplant. Chamaerops humilis is the northernmost naturally occurring palm in the world. It is found as far north as the south coast of France in its natural state. In the UK, it generally grows to around two metres tall. Normally retailing for £179.99, Gardening Express' end-of-season clearance sale has seen it fall all the way to £59.99 while stocks last. If you'd prefer to shop elsewhere or fancy grabbing a smaller variant, Thompson & Morgan are offering this Chamaerops humilis Dwarf Fan Palm for £69.99, or head over to Dobies to find this dwarf Chamaerops humilis for the same price.

Enjoy freshly grown apples from the comfort of your own garden with this large fruit tree that's currently up for grabs for less than half its ordinary price thanks to this sale Green-thumbed shoppers keen to start growing their own fruit can't go wrong with a traditional apple tree, which is set to yield masses of sweet and crisp fruit as early as its first growing season. But if you're worried a tree like this may come with a hefty price tag, look no further, as this Gardening Express offer has slashed it from its ordinary price of £34.97 to £14.97. Currently available for £20 less, this specially bred Apple Tree variety is supplied as an already large and well-established plant, at approximately 3-year-old trees in a 5-litre container. Ready to start fruiting readily within the first year or so after planting, this apple tree is naturally tough, hardy, with great fruit quality and disease resistance, ensuring it's at home in a UK garden or on a patio as it's sure to withstand the ever-changing weather through season after season. An ideal choice for novices or adept gardeners, this apple tree is very easy to grow and is a slow-growing variety that usually needs no pruning or maintenance. These apple trees are perfectly happy in large patio planters on terraces or balconies or planted in the open garden. They will eventually reach an eventual height of around 150cm. Producing medium-sized fruit, this tree offers round to slightly flattened apples that have a beautiful green-yellow colour when ripe. It is extremely juicy and very firm, with a sweet flavour that is sweeter than the well-known Golden Delicious. Typically ready to harvest in early September, the fruit can be left on the tree longer to develop its distinctive flavour.
