As a gift, I have been given three, bare rooted, cordon apple trees. One bramley (cooker) and two eating apple.
I know that now is the time to get them into the ground, but I haven't prepared an area yet and that is unlikely in the very near future.
Could I plant them (upright) in a pot for this year and then transplant them to their final growing position next Autumn?
In the same vein: do they have to be planted at a 45 degree angle or could they be planted upright in their final position?
I don't have a large garden so these will form my miniature orchard and I want to get it right (if I can).
Hopefully that is all the information needed.
Thank you for any and all advice.
