Dwarf Almond - Self Pollinating Papershell 9/10 Doshepherd1's Edible FruitsUpdate: 3358 days 6hrs Comments: - Very fast grower - it went from a nursery whip to about 4 metres in its first year. I think I would have purchased a whole hedge if I had known. Only a handful of almonds the first fruiting season, but I wasn't expecting any, so it was very exciting to have a real homegrown almond. It's a favourite with my chooks as the branches are quite low and the shade plus protection is good. Picture is of the first real harvest, with heaps more still on the tree. I wouldn't mind planting more of these.
