Medlar Nottingham

The Medlar Nottingham (Mespilus germanica 'Nottingham') is a compact, deciduous fruit tree known for its attractive, twisted branches and late-ripening fruit. The small, russet-brown fruit, often described as ""bletted"" when softened by frost, has a sweet, spiced flavour, ideal for making jellies, preserves, or enjoyed fresh. This traditional variety is popular in UK gardens for its ornamental value, with beautiful white blossoms in spring and its unique, historical fruit.
