Fruit Trees To Plant In Autumn
Olive El Greco (El Greco Olive Tree)
Olive El Greco is grown for its high yields of quality fruit. It carries large fruit that are often squeezed to produce an oil with a distinct, fruity aroma. The fruit are dark purple-black when mature in autumn and originate from white-cream flowers borne in summer. The foliage comprises grey-green leaves which are held on rigid branches as it grows to 2.5 m tall and the same wide. The El Greco Olive tree is one of the more popular varieties and is often grown for fruit production. This olive also makes for an impressive specimen tree and is useful for screening, using as a windbreak, or being trimming either into a hedge or for topiary.

Platanus acerifolia (Plane Tree)
Platanus acerifolia, commonly known as the London Plane Tree, is a large, deciduous tree grown for its foliage, stature, and showy fruits. The foliage is lush, dark green, and develops a yellow-brown colour before falling in autumn. A distinctive feature of this tree is the brown bark which is shed to reveal a cream-white inner bark resulting in a trunk with a somewhat mottled appearance as it grows to about 25 m tall and 20 m wide (though it can be trimmed as necessary). Platanus acerifolia makes a fantastic shade tree and is commonly grown as a specimen in large gardens or parks, or used in an avenue planting.
