Has anyone had success growing fruit trees outside in the UK? I'm looking for options beyond the usual apples and pears. I've got a lemon tree, but my partner isn't keen on bringing it indoors during winter. I'm researching more hardy varieties like kiwis and pomegranates. I also already have quite a few berry plants.

Greengages seem to thrive too. I can vouch for that; I have one and it produces an insane amount of fruit every year!
Figs are a fantastic choice! The Brown Turkey variety can stay outside year round and has been pretty reliable for me.
I've got a damson tree in my back garden, and it has been doing really well! It's a great option if you're looking for something a bit different.
That's awesome! I might have to look into getting one of those.
