Why Choose Espalier Fruit Trees?

Espalier fruit trees bring a host of advantages for both experienced and beginner gardeners in NZ. Training your fruit trees flat against a wall, fence, or trellis not only saves valuable garden space, but also improves sun exposure and air circulation—important factors in fruit ripening and disease prevention. Espalier techniques create an elegant, formal appearance, making these trees ideal for feature planting in courtyards, along driveways, or even as living screens between garden areas.

Our Range: Espalier Apples, Plums & More

At our nursery, you can buy espalier fruit trees NZ-wide, including classic varieties that promise exceptional flavour and easy care. For apple lovers, consider espaliered options like Apple Liberty (Liberty Apple), prized for its disease resistance and crisp, sweet flavour. The Apple Wandin Glory (Wandin Glory Apple) is another popular choice, offering excellent taste and reliable cropping for Kiwi home gardens.

If stone fruit is more your style, our espalier plum tree selection features favourites such as Plum Omega, renowned for its juicy, flavoursome fruit and robust growth. For those after something especially sweet and traditional, the Plum 'Greengage' is a heritage classic with its distinctive green flesh and honeyed taste.

While most commonly used for apples and plums, espalier techniques can also be used with less conventional fruiting trees. For example, you might like to experiment with Olive El Greco, training this Mediterranean gem along a north-facing wall for a unique edible display that also delivers aromatic foliage and bountiful olives.

When you buy espalier fruit trees NZ gardeners can trust, it’s important to select a tree that matches your local climate and the available space in your garden. Look for disease-resistant varieties and ensure adequate sunlight—most espalier fruit trees need at least six hours of direct sunlight daily for best results. Plant with good quality soil rich in organic matter, and be patient: an espalier form takes careful initial training, but the visual and harvest rewards are well worth it.
