Fruit growing in Scotland
|
|
The greenhouse effect is giving us a new climate in Scotland allowing us to grow more exotic plants, such as grapes, figs, peaches, and travel abroad has given us experiences of the Saskatoon (Amelanchier alnifolia), from Canada. Trials with native Blaeberries (Vaccinium 98rtillus)are very pleasing.
