Prunus dulcis 'All In One' is the almond that crops without a partner. Most almonds need a second variety flowering alongside them to set nuts, whereas 'All In One' is fully self-fertile, which makes a single tree viable in a suburban backyard.
'All In One' grows to 3 to 5 metres tall and 2 to 3 metres wide at 60 to 90 centimetres per year, and is easily held smaller with annual pruning. It carries heavy crops of soft-shelled almonds that can be cracked by hand, and covers itself in pale pink blossom in late winter before any leaves appear.
'All In One' is frost hardy, surviving heavy and frequent frost without damage, and needs winter chill and a hot dry summer to ripen its crop. It wants full sun and free-draining soil, and should be pruned after harvest rather than in winter.
About Prunus dulcis 'All In One'
Yes. 'All In One' is fully self-fertile and will set a heavy crop from a single tree, unlike most almond varieties which need a second variety planted nearby.
It reaches 3 to 5 metres tall and 2 to 3 metres wide, and is easily held at 2.5 to 3 metres with annual pruning, which keeps the harvest within reach.
Nuts ripen through late summer into autumn. The hulls split open on the tree when the crop is ready, which is the signal to harvest.
No. 'All In One' produces soft-shelled almonds that can be cracked by hand or with light pressure, which makes home processing far easier than with hard-shelled varieties.
Pale pink blossom covers the bare branches in late winter and early spring, before the foliage emerges. It is one of the earliest fruit trees to flower.
They need winter chill to break dormancy and a hot dry summer to ripen and cure the nuts. Humid summers cause hull rot and poor kernel quality.
Prune after harvest rather than in winter, which reduces the risk of fungal and bacterial infection through open pruning wounds.

Does Prunus dulcis 'All In One Almond' flower?
Flowering Period:
Flower Type:
Flower Colour:
Pink
No
Prunus dulcis 'All In One Almond' is Native to The Middle East and Mediterranean region, where Prunus dulcis (almond) originates and has been cultivated for thousands of years.
Its early spring blossoms attract bees and pollinating insects essential for nut formation. The developing nuts and canopy offer food and shelter for small birds, while the branching structure provides nesting opportunities—adding meaningful biodiversity to home orchards and edible gardens.
Prunus dulcis 'All In One Almond' will thrive best in:
Prunus dulcis ‘All In One’ performs best in well-drained loam or sandy loam soils and prefers slightly acidic to neutral ground. Almonds are sensitive to heavy clay, salinity and waterlogging, so improve poor soils with organic matter and coarse material to enhance drainage and soil structure. Keep soil evenly moist during establishment, then transition to deep, occasional watering as the tree matures to support nut development, strong root health and consistent annual cropping.
Is Prunus dulcis 'All In One Almond' Drought tolerant?
As a young tree it requires regular watering, but once established ‘All In One’ develops good drought tolerance. Naturally suited to warm, dry climates, it maintains healthy growth and reliable nut production with deep, occasional watering during extended dry periods. Consistent moisture during flowering and nut set improves yield.

Enriched Planting Mix is a certified organic blend of Pure Magic Compost, composted animal manure, gypsum, composted coarse bark and a wetting agent, bagged in 30L. It is built to be dug through existing garden soil at planting time rather than used on its own, and the gypsum is what sets it apart from a plain compost.
Gypsum helps break up heavy clay so water and roots can move through it, while the compost and manure return organic matter and nutrient to tired ground. The coarse bark holds structure and keeps air around the root zone, and the wetting agent keeps moisture in the soil longer after rain or watering.
Use it when planting trees, shrubs, roses, fruit trees and exotic garden plants, particularly into clay. Dig a hole twice the width of the pot and 7 centimetres deeper, then mix roughly one third planting mix through the excavated soil. Spread 7 centimetres of that improved soil in the base before setting the plant in.
About Enriched Planting Mix
It is a blend of Pure Magic Compost, composted animal manure, gypsum, composted coarse bark and a wetting agent. Each part has a job. The compost and manure supply organic matter and nutrient, the gypsum works on clay structure, the bark keeps air around the roots and the wetting agent holds moisture in the soil.
It suits exotic garden plants, including roses, ornamental and deciduous trees, fruit trees, shrubs and perennials, and it earns its keep most on heavy clay sites. It is a planting mix rather than a potting mix, so its job is improving soil at planting time. Phosphorus sensitive natives are the one clear exception.
No, not for the phosphorus sensitive ones. The composted animal manure in this blend lifts phosphorus well above what Proteaceae such as Banksia, Grevillea, Hakea and Protea will tolerate, and the result can be leaf burn, dieback and plant death. Use the Native Potting Mix for those species, or plant them into unimproved local soil.
Yes. It is a certified organic product with no chemical additives, which is why the manure and compost in it are fully composted rather than raw. That makes it sound around fruit trees and vegetable beds, and it means you are adding genuine organic matter to your soil rather than a synthetic conditioner.
Work on roughly one third planting mix to two thirds of the soil you dug out of the hole. For a shrub out of a 200 millimetre pot that is only a few litres. An advanced tree going into a large hole will take considerably more. Judge the quantity by the volume of the hole rather than the size of the plant.
It is not a potting mix and should not be used on its own in a container. The blend is designed to be diluted through garden soil, and used straight in a pot it holds too much water and settles badly. For containers, reach for a premium potting mix, or the native mix if you are potting natives.
Yes. Water the plant well several hours before you plant it, then water thoroughly again once the hole is backfilled and the soil firmed down. That first deep watering settles the improved soil around the root ball and drives out air pockets. Keep the water up over the first few months while the roots establish.

Camellia sasanqua 'Setsugekka' is a tall evergreen shrub with large, single to semi double white flowers, the petals slightly ruffled around a centre of golden stamens. Bloom runs from late autumn into early winter. Foliage is small, glossy and dark green, carried densely on an upright, gently spreading frame.
It takes more sun than a japonica and will hold full sun in cooler districts, though part shade suits inland heat. Soil should be well drained and slightly acidic. Growth is 40 to 60 centimetres a year, to 2 to 4 metres tall and 1.5 to 2.5 metres wide. Light frost is tolerated.
This is the standard choice for a tall evergreen screen along a boundary or between neighbouring houses, and it clips readily into a formal hedge. It also stands alone as a feature, or fills a large pot at an entry. The height and density make it useful wherever fence line privacy is the brief.
About Camellia sasanqua 'Setsugekka'
'Setsugekka' is a tall evergreen sasanqua camellia with large single to semi double white flowers, the petals slightly ruffled around a boss of golden stamens. It flowers from late autumn into early winter. Small glossy dark leaves are held densely on an upright, gently spreading shrub used widely for screening.
It reaches 2 to 4 metres tall and 1.5 to 2.5 metres wide, at a rate of roughly 40 to 60 centimetres a year. That upper height is what makes it a genuine screening plant rather than a border shrub. Regular trimming will hold it at any height above about 1.5 metres.
Space plants 1 to 1.5 metres apart for a dense informal screen, or 80 centimetres apart for a tighter formal hedge. Tighter spacing closes the gaps faster but increases competition for water and nutrients, so prepare a continuous trench rather than individual holes and keep irrigation even along the run.
Flowering starts in late autumn and carries into early winter, roughly April through to June across most of southern Australia. Sasanquas flower ahead of japonicas, so this one fills the gap before the japonica season begins. Individual flowers drop cleanly from the plant rather than browning on the bush.
It takes more sun than a japonica and will hold full sun in cooler and coastal districts. In hot inland gardens give it afternoon shade to protect the foliage. It also flowers acceptably in part shade, which makes it one of the more flexible screening plants for a boundary with mixed aspect.
Yes. A pot 40 to 50 centimetres wide suits a single specimen for a courtyard, entry or balcony. Use a free draining camellia and azalea mix, water regularly because containers dry out fast, and feed after flowering. Expect a smaller final size in a container than the same plant would reach in open ground.
Trim once flowering finishes in early winter, taking the new growth back to shape. For a formal hedge, a second light trim in late summer keeps the face tidy. Feed with a camellia fertiliser after pruning, keep mulch over the shallow roots, and water deeply through summer dry spells.
Buxus sempervirens English Box Topiary Balls are pre-clipped formal evergreen specimens, available in three mature sizes and ready to place. The tight, fine, dark green foliage holds a precise rounded form year-round and gives the classic formal topiary look that no other Buxus replicates. As one of our most consistently strong-selling products, our English Box topiary balls are well-shaped, well-rooted, and arrive in proportion to the pot size.
English Box performs best in cool to temperate climates and is slow growing at around 15 to 25 cm per year in good conditions, which is exactly why it holds sharp formal shapes so well. It thrives in full sun to part shade with well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral loamy soil, and is frost hardy, drought tolerant once established, and excellent in containers. Two light clips per year, in spring and again in late summer, keep the ball form crisp.
Use them flanking entrances, lining formal pathways, anchoring symmetrical garden beds, defining parterre and knot gardens, and in pairs in classic urns and decorative pots at front doors. Buxus sempervirens is the original topiary plant and remains the benchmark for traditional and contemporary formal design, with a level of finesse and density that fast-growing alternatives cannot replicate.
About Buxus sempervirens English Box Topiary Balls
Our English Box topiary balls arrive pre-clipped and ready to place at the size you order. The 30cm/33cm pots have ball diameters of approximately 30 to 45 cm, the 40cm/45L pots have ball diameters of 40 to 55 cm, and the 50cm/75L pots have ball diameters of 50 to 70 cm. They are well-rooted and in proportion to the pot.
English Box is slow-growing, adding approximately 15 to 25 cm per year once established in good conditions. This slow growth rate is one of the reasons it holds sharp formal shapes so well, and why mature pre-clipped specimens command a premium over seedling-grown stock.
English Box (Buxus sempervirens) has the smallest, finest leaves and the tightest formal texture, ideal for traditional parterres and clipped balls. Japanese Box (Buxus microphylla japonica) has slightly larger leaves, grows faster, and handles heat better. Shaggy Box (Buxus bodinieri) has soft, rounded leaves, much better blight resistance, and is the best choice for humid subtropical climates where English Box can struggle.
English Box performs best in cool to temperate regions including Victoria, the ACT, the NSW Southern Highlands and Central Tablelands, Tasmania, and the elevated parts of South Australia and Western Australia. In humid coastal or hot subtropical regions, consider Buxus bodinieri Shaggy Box or Japanese Box instead for better long-term performance.
Lightly clip in spring and again in late summer or early autumn to maintain the ball shape. Avoid pruning in the heat of summer or during frost periods. Use sharp shears for the cleanest formal finish, and step back regularly to check the symmetry of the form.
Yes. English Box is the classic potted topiary plant and pre-clipped balls look particularly striking in pairs at entrances and on terraces. Use a minimum 30L pot for the 30cm/33cm size and scale up from there, with a quality potting mix and a slow-release fertiliser applied twice yearly.
English Box can be affected by box blight, particularly in humid conditions where foliage stays wet. To reduce risk, ensure good air circulation around each plant, avoid overhead watering, and prune to maintain airflow through the canopy. In high-humidity regions, Buxus bodinieri Shaggy Box is a more disease-resistant alternative.
Ligularia reniformis carries enormous glossy kidney-shaped leaves that give a shaded garden the bold tropical texture usually only available in full sun. The Tractor Seat Plant is grown for foliage first, with tall stems of bright yellow daisy flowers through summer as a bonus.
Ligularia reniformis forms a clump 0.6 to 1 metre tall and 1 to 1.5 metres wide, spreading slowly at 10 to 20 centimetres per year. That steady habit makes it reliable as a mass underplanting beneath established trees, an edging along a shaded path, or a single specimen in a large pot.
This is a full shade plant. It wants consistent moisture and protection from hot afternoon sun, which scorches the leaves, and it is frost sensitive, so in cold districts it needs a protected position. Given shade and water it is close to maintenance free.
About Ligularia reniformis
It forms a clump 0.6 to 1 metre tall and 1 to 1.5 metres wide. The individual leaves can reach 40 centimetres across, which is where the bold texture comes from.
The common name comes from the large round kidney-shaped leaves, which resemble the seat of an old tractor. The botanical name reniformis means kidney-shaped.
Yes. It performs best in full shade and will scorch in hot afternoon sun. It is one of the most useful foliage plants available for genuinely dark positions.
Tall stems of bright yellow daisy-like flowers rise well above the foliage through summer. The foliage remains the main feature for the rest of the year.
No. It is frost sensitive and may be damaged by frost. In cold districts plant it in a protected position, or grow it in a pot that can be moved under cover.
It wants consistently moist soil and does not tolerate drying out. Mulch well and water regularly through summer, particularly in pots and under established trees where roots compete.
Plant 0.8 to 1 metre apart for a continuous shaded groundcover mass. Closer spacing fills in faster but the clumps will crowd within a few seasons.
Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Silver Sheen' carries small shimmering silver-green leaves on near-black stems, giving a light airy screen that moves in the wind rather than reading as a solid green wall. It is one of the most widely specified screening plants in Australian landscape design for exactly that reason.
'Silver Sheen' grows to 4 to 6 metres tall but only 1.5 to 2 metres wide at 30 to 60 centimetres per year, which makes it a genuine solution for narrow beds along fence lines and between buildings where height is needed but width is not available. Small cream flowers appear in spring and are lightly fragrant.
'Silver Sheen' grows in full sun to part shade and tolerates light to moderate frost once established, performing from subtropical Queensland through Sydney, Melbourne, Gippsland and Adelaide. It clips well, holds density under regular trimming, and is equally effective as a formal hedge or a loose screen.
About Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Silver Sheen'
'Silver Sheen' grows to 4 to 6 metres tall and only 1.5 to 2 metres wide, which makes it one of the best options for narrow screening where a tall hedge is needed in a shallow bed.
It grows at 30 to 60 centimetres per year once established, reaching a usable screening height within three to four years with regular water and feeding.
It naturally holds to 1.5 to 2 metres wide and can be trimmed to under a metre with regular clipping, which is why it is so often used in tight side-boundary positions.
Plant 1 to 1.5 metres apart for a dense informal screen, or 80 centimetres apart for a tighter formal hedge. Closer spacing fills in faster but needs more trimming.
'Silver Sheen' handles light to moderate frost once established. Young plants benefit from protection through their first winter in colder inland districts.
Yes. It performs in full sun through to part shade. In shadier positions growth is slightly more open, which suits a softer informal screen.
It performs from subtropical Queensland through Northern NSW, Sydney, the South Coast and tablelands, Melbourne and surrounds, the Western District, Gippsland and Adelaide.
Rhaphiolepis indica 'Snow Maiden' is a compact evergreen shrub that delivers a fresh burst of fragrant pure white flowers from late winter into spring. The dense mounding habit and glossy dark green foliage give it a lush, polished year-round appearance.
Snow Maiden grows to just 1-1.5 metres tall and wide, holding a naturally tidy rounded form with minimal pruning. The compact size makes it an excellent choice for low clipped hedges, borders, mass plantings, and containers, and it works well as a standout specimen in mixed plantings. Small dark berries follow the flowers.
Snow Maiden performs well in full sun to part shade and is drought hardy once established, thriving in coastal gardens and a wide range of well-drained soils. It is salt tolerant, low maintenance, and needs only moderate water while establishing.
About Rhaphiolepis indica 'Snow Maiden'
Rhaphiolepis indica 'Snow Maiden' grows to 1-1.5 metres tall and wide, forming a naturally compact dense mound.
Snow Maiden has a moderate growth rate of 20-40cm per year once established.
Snow Maiden produces masses of pure white flowers from late winter into spring, followed by small dark berries.
Yes. Snow Maiden is one of the best compact evergreen shrubs for low hedges, borders, and mass plantings, holding a tidy rounded form with minimal pruning.
Yes. Snow Maiden is both drought tolerant and salt tolerant once established, making it well suited to coastal gardens and low-water landscapes.
Plant 50-70cm apart for a continuous low hedge, or 80cm-1 metre for a softer informal border.
Snow Maiden thrives across most Australian climates in full sun to part shade, tolerating heat, coastal exposure, and a wide range of well-drained soils.
Viburnum tinus flowers through winter and into spring, when almost nothing else is in bloom, opening tight pink buds into flat clusters of white flowers that are followed by metallic blue-black berries. It is one of very few hedging plants that earns its place in the colder months.
Viburnum tinus grows to 2 to 4 metres tall and 2.5 to 4 metres wide at 30 to 50 centimetres per year, forming a dense evergreen mass right to ground level. It clips cleanly into a formal hedge, holds well as an informal screen, and is equally useful as a large-scale groundcover mass on banks.
This is one of the most forgiving hedging plants available, growing in full sun through to part shade and tolerating light to moderate frost once established. It performs from subtropical Queensland through Sydney, the tablelands, Melbourne, Gippsland, the Western District and Adelaide.
About Viburnum tinus
Viburnum tinus grows to 2 to 4 metres tall and 2.5 to 4 metres wide. It is most often held at 1.5 to 2.5 metres as a clipped hedge and holds density right down to ground level.
Flowering runs through winter and into spring. Tight pink buds open to flat clusters of white flowers, followed by metallic blue-black berries that persist and attract birds.
Yes. It is one of the better hedging plants for shaded positions, performing in full sun through to part shade. In deeper shade growth is more open but the plant stays healthy.
Plant 1 to 1.5 metres apart for a dense informal screen, or 80 centimetres apart for a tight formal hedge. For a groundcover mass on a bank, 1 metre apart works well.
Yes. It handles light to moderate frost once established and performs in cool tablelands districts, though young plants benefit from protection through their first winter.
It grows at a moderate 30 to 50 centimetres per year, which makes it easy to keep at a set height without constant trimming, unlike faster screening plants.
Prune straight after the main flowering finishes in spring. This preserves the following winter's flower buds while giving the plant a full growing season to fill back out.
Trachelospermum jasminoides 'Balls' is Star Jasmine grown and clipped into a dense evergreen sphere. The small glossy leaves sit tight on a woody framework, holding a clean rounded outline year round. White pinwheel flowers open in spring and carry a strong sweet scent right across a courtyard.
Ball specimens hold at about 1 to 1.5 metres tall and wide with light clipping. Full sun to part shade suits them, in any free draining soil. Growth is slow to moderate at 30 to 50 centimetres a year. They handle coastal exposure, light frost and dry spells once the roots are down.
Repeat them along a driveway, either side of an entry, or in pots on a terrace where a formal shape is wanted straight away. They read as structure in a planting scheme without the height of a hedge, and because the form is already trained, a new garden looks settled from the day it goes in.
About Star Jasmine Balls
They are Trachelospermum jasminoides, the common Star Jasmine, grown and clipped into a dense evergreen sphere on a woody framework. Instead of climbing, the plant is trained into a self supporting rounded shape. The foliage is small, glossy and dark green, and the plant carries scented white flowers through spring.
They hold at roughly 1 to 1.5 metres tall and 1 to 1.5 metres wide. Growth is slow to moderate at 30 to 50 centimetres a year, so a light clip once or twice a year keeps the ball tight at whatever size within that range suits the setting.
Full sun to part shade both work. Full sun gives the densest foliage and the heaviest flowering, while part shade produces slightly softer, more open growth and fewer flowers. Avoid deep shade, where the ball thins out and loses its outline. Morning sun with afternoon protection suits hot inland gardens.
Yes, and pots are one of the main uses. A container 50 to 60 centimetres wide with a quality free draining mix will hold a ball for years. Water more often than you would in the ground, especially in summer, and feed in spring and again in late summer. Refresh the mix every few years.
Yes, the foliage is held year round. The glossy dark green leaves take on a bronze tinge in cold weather and green up again in spring, but the plant never goes bare. That is what makes it useful as permanent structure in a scheme, particularly in winter once perennials have died back.
Flowering runs through spring, roughly September to November, and often carries into early summer in warmer districts. The white pinwheel flowers are small but produced in quantity, and the scent is strong on still evenings. Flowering is heaviest on plants in full sun that were not clipped hard just before bud set.
Clip lightly with hedging shears once after flowering and again in late summer if needed, taking only the new growth to keep the outline crisp. Water deeply in dry weather, mulch the base, and feed in early spring. The sap is milky and can irritate skin, so wear gloves when trimming.
Prunus armeniaca 'Moorpark' is the apricot most Australians remember from a grandparent's backyard, carrying large golden-orange fruit with a depth of flavour that commercial varieties bred for transport do not match. It is self-fertile, so a single tree will crop on its own.
'Moorpark' grows to 4 to 7 metres tall and 4 to 6 metres wide at 30 to 60 centimetres per year, and is readily held smaller with annual pruning. Pale pink blossom covers the bare branches in early spring, making the tree genuinely ornamental before any fruit appears.
'Moorpark' is frost hardy, surviving heavy and frequent frost without damage, and needs winter chill to crop reliably. It wants full sun, free-draining soil and pruning immediately after harvest rather than in winter, which reduces the risk of fungal infection.
About Prunus armeniaca 'Moorpark'
Moorpark ripens through mid to late summer. The fruit does not all ripen at once, which spreads the harvest over two to three weeks in a home garden.
Yes. Moorpark is self-fertile and will set a full crop from a single tree without needing a second apricot variety nearby.
It reaches 4 to 7 metres tall and 4 to 6 metres wide unpruned, and is easily held at 3 metres with annual pruning, which keeps the fruit within reach.
Yes. Like all apricots it needs a period of winter chill to break dormancy and crop reliably, so it performs best in temperate and cool districts.
Prune straight after harvest in summer, never in winter. Apricots are highly susceptible to bacterial canker and fungal infection through winter pruning wounds.
Yes, in a large pot with free-draining mix in full sun. Container trees stay smaller and crop lighter, and need consistent watering through fruit development.
Yes. The tree survives heavy and frequent frost without damage, though late frosts during spring blossom can reduce that season's crop.
Prunus cerasifera 'Oakville Crimson Spire' holds deep crimson-purple foliage on a tight upright column, delivering strong seasonal colour in a footprint narrow enough for a nature strip or a side boundary. Pale pink blossom covers the bare frame in early spring before the foliage emerges.
'Oakville Crimson Spire' grows to 8 to 12 metres tall but only 3 to 4 metres wide at 30 to 60 centimetres per year, giving a genuinely columnar habit that needs no pruning to maintain. It is widely specified for streetscapes, driveway avenues and civic plantings where canopy width has to be controlled.
This is a frost hardy tree that survives heavy and frequent frost without damage, and foliage colour is strongest where winters are cold. It grows in full sun to part shade, though the deepest crimson tones develop in an open sunny position.
About Prunus cerasifera 'Oakville Crimson Spire'
It reaches 8 to 12 metres tall and only 3 to 4 metres wide, holding a distinctly columnar form. The narrow width is its defining feature and the reason it is used as a street tree.
Foliage is deep crimson-purple and holds that colour through the growing season rather than fading to bronze or green, which gives a long season of interest.
Pale pink blossom covers the bare branches in early spring, before the foliage emerges. The display typically lasts two to three weeks.
Yes. It is fully deciduous, dropping its foliage through autumn and flowering on bare wood the following spring.
No. The columnar habit is natural and holds without intervention. Remove any crossing or damaged wood in winter, but formative pruning is not required.
Plant 2.5 to 3 metres apart for a continuous columnar avenue, or 3 to 4 metres apart where each tree should read separately.
Yes. It survives heavy and frequent frost without damage, and cold winters actually improve both blossom and foliage colour.
Prunus cerasifera 'Nigra', the Purple-Leaf Plum, is a much-loved deciduous feature tree grown for its deep purple-black foliage and soft pink spring blossom. The rich leaf colour holds through the entire growing season, giving a striking contrast against green plantings.
Purple-Leaf Plum grows to 4-6 metres tall and 3-4 metres wide with a graceful rounded canopy. The compact, well-structured form and manageable size make it an ideal feature tree for gardens, streetscapes, and small yards, where it offers strong architectural appeal. Masses of soft pink blossoms appear in early spring, often before the new foliage emerges.
Purple-Leaf Plum is highly adaptable and thrives across most Australian climates, tolerating heat, frost, and a wide range of soils once established. It performs best in full sun, which encourages the richest leaf colour, and needs only minimal pruning to maintain its shape.

Prunus x blireana covers its bare branches in fully double rose-pink blossom through early spring, then follows with purple-bronze foliage that holds its colour all summer rather than fading to green. That combination of heavy blossom and season-long leaf colour is what separates it from ordinary flowering plums.
Prunus x blireana grows to 4 to 6 metres tall at 30 to 45 centimetres per year, forming a rounded open canopy on a clean single trunk. The moderate size and non-invasive habit make it a practical feature tree for front gardens, courtyards and residential streetscapes.
This is a frost hardy tree that survives heavy and frequent frost without damage and colours best where winters are genuinely cold. It grows in full sun to part shade, though foliage colour is deepest and blossom heaviest in an open sunny position.
About Prunus x blireana
Prunus x blireana grows to 4 to 6 metres tall, forming a rounded open canopy. It is a moderate-sized feature tree that suits residential front gardens and street verges.
It flowers in early spring, before the foliage emerges, covering the bare branches in fully double rose-pink blossom. The display typically lasts two to three weeks.
New foliage emerges deep purple-bronze and holds that colour through summer rather than reverting to green, which gives the tree a much longer season of interest than most flowering plums.
Yes. It is fully deciduous, dropping its foliage through autumn and flowering on bare wood the following spring.
Yes. It is frost hardy and survives heavy and frequent frost without damage. Cold winters actually improve both blossom quantity and foliage colour.
It produces very little fruit and is grown purely as an ornamental. This makes it a cleaner choice than fruiting plums for paths, driveways and street planting.
Plant 3 to 4 metres apart as individual feature trees to allow the canopy to develop, or 3 metres apart for a uniform blossom avenue.

Prunus dulcis 'All In One' is the almond that crops without a partner. Most almonds need a second variety flowering alongside them to set nuts, whereas 'All In One' is fully self-fertile, which makes a single tree viable in a suburban backyard.
'All In One' grows to 3 to 5 metres tall and 2 to 3 metres wide at 60 to 90 centimetres per year, and is easily held smaller with annual pruning. It carries heavy crops of soft-shelled almonds that can be cracked by hand, and covers itself in pale pink blossom in late winter before any leaves appear.
'All In One' is frost hardy, surviving heavy and frequent frost without damage, and needs winter chill and a hot dry summer to ripen its crop. It wants full sun and free-draining soil, and should be pruned after harvest rather than in winter.
About Prunus dulcis 'All In One'
Yes. 'All In One' is fully self-fertile and will set a heavy crop from a single tree, unlike most almond varieties which need a second variety planted nearby.
It reaches 3 to 5 metres tall and 2 to 3 metres wide, and is easily held at 2.5 to 3 metres with annual pruning, which keeps the harvest within reach.
Nuts ripen through late summer into autumn. The hulls split open on the tree when the crop is ready, which is the signal to harvest.
No. 'All In One' produces soft-shelled almonds that can be cracked by hand or with light pressure, which makes home processing far easier than with hard-shelled varieties.
Pale pink blossom covers the bare branches in late winter and early spring, before the foliage emerges. It is one of the earliest fruit trees to flower.
They need winter chill to break dormancy and a hot dry summer to ripen and cure the nuts. Humid summers cause hull rot and poor kernel quality.
Prune after harvest rather than in winter, which reduces the risk of fungal and bacterial infection through open pruning wounds.
