It has been a while since I posted my original question here. Building the retaining wall, putting in the drainage, packing in the soil etc has taken me the best part of six months.

Now I find myself in the middle of November and wondering whether there is anything I can do with my new "garden". One of the things I have on my list is a couple of apple trees. I have noted that the right time to plant apple trees is October to December. The garden itself is far too shady to handle apple trees. However, I do have the option of planting a couple apple trees at the front of my house where they will get 6+ hours of sunshine through the spring/summerr months.

My question - what sort of varieties will I be able to grow here, Luxembourg. I would like to have dwarf trees since they are more manageble and I don't have vast amounts of space.

I'd much appreciate any help
