I was wondering if anyone could give me advice on what type of apple
tree I should get for my garden as it is quite small 6 metres by 4
metres and also when the best time to plant would be.



If you want to get apples, you probably need two trees, or a tree that
has grafts of two varieties. Most apples are not self-pollinating. For
a small garden, you might search for dwarf varieties.



Do your neighbors have flowering crabapple trees? If so, you only need
one tree.
