Hello,
I plan to put a fruit tree, either an apple tree or a plum tree, in my
front garden. I only have room for one. so it needs to be self-pollinating.
Does anyone know which are the best self-pollinators, apples or plums ?
Thanks

Victoria plums. Traditional, self pollinating and scrumptious.
Seconded - but unless you have a very large front garden, go to a
specialist to get the tree on the correct rootstock - I have a fan
trained Victoria on a dwarfing rootstock but I still have to work to
keep it in check. About 25lbs last year and it looks like similar this
year from a 10 year old tree.
