Good morning all I was just wondering what I will be able to grow once I moved to Unst as I like growing my own fruit and veg will be bring some fruit trees with me and PRAY they will cope with the journey to Unst

thank you for your time in Reading this post :D

Imo its best if at all possible to use Shetland grown stock which will be hardened up to the local climate. I would think (depending where you are briniging them from) that mature fruit trees from say England would have a hard time adjusting unless your Unst location is very sheltered for here.

 

MuckleJ gives good advice, Rosa especially will give good info.

 

Best of luck with your move!

On a positive note there are a number of places you should see when you are here if you are in need of inspiration. It is quite amazing what can be achieved with knowledge, effort and patience:

 

Rosa's gardens at Tresta

The gardins at Sand

Michaelswood at Aith

Kergord

 

And many private gardens round Shetland, apologies for those not mentioned!
