Frank P Matthews Trees is celebrating a major double win at the Malvern Autumn Show 2025, securing their sixth RHS Gold Medal and the prestigious Best in Show for a vibrant exhibit featuring more than 300 apple varieties, alongside pears, quinces, crab apples and other fruits.
The award-winning nursery, based in Tenbury Wells, showcased the diversity and heritage of British fruit growing, from rare traditional apples to modern cultivars. Judges praised the display for its colour, biodiversity, and celebration of the nation’s rich orchard culture.
The team have taken the exhibit home to The Tree Shop in Tenbury Wells where it will be on display for visitors from 7th October . With their 125th anniversary approaching in 2026, the nursery continues to champion heritage, innovation and sustainability in British horticulture.
