Heritage Apple Tree Sale Day
|
Rippon
Lea is proud to announce that we are offering a selection of our famous
heritage apple trees for sale to the public at a special sale day on
Sunday March 14th from 10am. Our garden staff have selected a range of
varieties from our orchard and grafted them on site. All these varieties
are no longer commercially grown and are very difficult to obtain. The
breadth of flavour these older cultivars span is quite amazing to those
of us accustomed to the half a dozen or so modern apples. All would make
a great addition to the home garden. Our garden staff will be on hand to
answer queries and provide advice while tasting and cultivation notes
will be provided with each tree. A large selection of ornamental plants
from our nursery will also be available including many from the National
Trust's own historic gardens. Stock is limited so we advise you to come
early to avoid disappointment. Come for the Heritage Apple Sale, bring a
picnic lunch and stay for Summer Sessions. |

Scottish historic military re-enactment groups, massed pipe bands displays,
Highland Dancing competitions, Scottish Country Dancing displays, a Celtic
Market, Scottish Folk Music, Scottish dogs and horses and Highland Cattle are
all a part of the traditional mix. There will also be clan and other cultural
