    Hi

    Ive got room in my garden for one small tree but I want two!

    It's a south facing border with neighbours fence behind, I suppose I can cut into lawn a little to come away from fence. I was fancying a Victoria plum and family apple tree. Also I have a patio area south east facing with house wall behind. Could I plant one tree in the border and the other in a container? If so which where?

    Cheers Tony

    If you have limited space how about a dual fruit tree you get 2 different fruits on one tree!
