M&S sold "Napoleon cherries" as a pack of fruit. They were the nicest cherries i ever tasted. I did a little research online and came across a cherry tree called "Bigarreau Napoleon". Is this the only cherry tree with the Napoleon name? im trying to make sure i get the right tree.

I have a dwarf apple tree (winston i think) and the leaves look like they have 2 different problems. One of the problems is that the leaves have a white powder on them, the other problem is brown spots(I put a pic of this). My gooseberries have the same problems. What is the best way to combat it? is it possible to do it organically and with stuff from the kitchen press.......? Last question: Last year my gooseberries got devoured from little green caterpillars, they are back again this year. Any advise? Thanks in advance
