One tree crops on its own, which makes it the practical choice where there is room for only a single nut tree.

Almonds are trees for a dry-summer climate with a cold winter. They crop best in Mediterranean gardens and in cool and warm temperate inland districts. They do poorly in the humid subtropics, where summer rain brings fungal disease and the nut set is light. The tree itself is frost hardy when dormant, but a late frost can damage the early blossom, so avoid frost hollows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoil.\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep, well-drained soil is the main requirement. Sandy loam or gravelly loam is ideal. Almonds will not put up with waterlogged ground, so plant on a mound in clay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater and feed.\u003c\/strong\u003e Water deeply and regularly from blossom until the nuts have filled, then reduce watering as the hulls split.

Almonds are deciduous, so a tree sent in winter arrives bare and one sent in the growing season arrives in leaf. Named almonds like this are grafted, and grafted trees crop sooner than seedlings. Plant at the same depth as the pot and water in well. Our growers do not hold every size all year, so a size can show as on backorder at times. An order for a backorder size is confirmed with you before anything ships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlants are delivered Australia wide, with delivery from $29.95. Every plant is covered by our 30 day healthy plant guarantee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlant care guides and related reading\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fruit-trees\"\u003eBrowse fruit and nut trees\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/edible-plants\"\u003eEdible plants for the backyard\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/deciduous-trees\"\u003eDeciduous trees\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/blog\/edible-backyard-layout-guide\"\u003eHow to lay out an edible backyard\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes All-In-One really crop alone?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It is a self-fertile almond, so a single tree sets nuts. Good bee activity at blossom time still helps the size of the crop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen do the nuts ripen?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom late summer into early autumn.
