Evening Grapes!
We have a patch of garden which can get quite waterlogged in winter after a good rain and we need to make the best of it. Doing away with some lawn and making a border seems a good option.
We have an old well established bramley planted there which does fruit but sparingly, the hedges all survive having wet feet. I have a victoria plum planted on a higher level which I need to transplant as the space its in is too dry (my plums shrivelled up
) and I don't want to be continually watering.
My question is what fruit trees would do well there? Would the plum be ok, I had read that figs don't mind wet feet occasionally, do I risk another apple? Any other suggestions welcomed, I would love to plant another quince (we had one at our old house) but I don't know if that would be a good spot.
Thank you
