Pterocarya Fraxinifolia Caucasian Wingnut Caucasian Walnut

Pterocarya Fraxinifolia Caucasian Wingnut Caucasian Walnut

The Caucasian Wingnut tree, botanically known as Pterocarya Fraxinifolia, is a large, fast growing deciduous tree suitable for big spaces. It is native to Eastern Turkey and Iran but was introduced to Britain in the 1780s, taking to the climate and growing conditions well.In spring the Caucasian Wingnut tree buds out its mid-green pinnate leaves which are exceedingly large - sometimes measuring up to 60cms in length with 19-21 pointed leaves each measuring 15cms. These leaves often cause confusion with Ash trees as they are the same shape, however Caucasian Wingnut is actually a member of the walnut family. In late spring small green flowers in hanging racemes of 50cms long attract pollinators in an unusually large display. These small flowers develop into the wingnut seeds that are loved by children as they abundantly helicopter to the ground in early autumn along with its rich yellow foliage. During winter the fissured bark and strong branching framework adds interest and texture to an empty garden. Often wingnut seeds remain on the tree, draping through its branches and swaying in the winter winds.Height and spread of Pterocarya FraxinifoliaThis is a large tree that will reach 17-22 metres in height and spread over 8 within 20-50 years depending on soil conditions. It needs room to spread and is most suitable for larger, open spaces.How Hardy Is Pterocarya FraxinifoliaCaucasian Wingnut is hardy throughout the UK down to sub-zero temperature s. It will tolerate temporary flooding and exposed conditions too.How To Use Pterocarya FraxinifoliaThis is a large tree, so it’s important to make sure you have sufficient room. If you have  enough space it’s the perfect tree to lie beneath on a hot sunny day looking up at its swaying foliage.How To Care For Pterocarya FraxinifoliaPterocarya Fraxinifolia likes moist, well drained soil best but it will grow in most conditions including clay, sand, loams of any pH. It will grow in sheltered and exposed areas, but as the tree becomes established you will need to stake it firmly against rocking winds. Young specimens need regular watering and mulching too. No pruning is required, but you can cut out dead or crossed branches in winter. Some suckers may appear in spring, and these can be cut back easily if you don’t want them.Pterocarya Fraxinifolia is not often spotted in UK gardens but its unusual foliage, flowers and fruits make it highly desirable if you have room. Larger gardens in need of a focal point can’t go wrong with the quirky and low maintenance Pterocarya Fraxinifolia.

Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem for Sale Online UK & Ireland

Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem for Sale Online UK & Ireland

Magnolia Grandiflora Little GemThe appeal of the magnolia tree is timeless.  The Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem is a dwarf tree version of the classic large and sprawling magnolia grandiflora. The tree’s petite compact growth makes it an ideal choice of ornamental evergreen tree for a small garden setting. These Magnolia Little Gems have been trained as three-quarter standard trees on clear stems. The Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem features large, evergreen leaves that look eye-catching year round. The underside of each shiny dark green leaf is a burnished red shade. Once per year the tree produces huge, fragrant, white flowers in abundance. It is not uncommon for the tree to start producing flowers when it stands only 90 centimeters tall. Flowers appear in the summer and often persist for two months or more. After flowering, the tree produces cone-like fruiting clusters that are adorned with clusters of bright red seeds. Many people consider the cones of the tree to be every bit as visually appealing as the tree’s flowers.   Its compact size and slow growth habits makes it ideal to grow as a specimen tree or as part of a hedge. It can also be trained to grow as an espalier against a fence or wall. The tree has even become a popular container tree to be placed around patios, pools, decks and other space-conserving locations. When fully grown, the Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem attains a height of around 10 meters with a width of around 3 to 4 meters. However, full growth is often not attained until the tree is 30 plus years old. Plant the Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem in full sun for best growth. It flourishes in moist, rich, peat-filled soils. The tree does not tolerate drought and prefers evenly moist soil conditions. Ideally, the tree’s best growth is attained when it is planted in slightly acidic soil. However, it will tolerate clay soil but its growth habits might be stunted or slowed.  Even though the Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem flourishes in heat and humidity, don’t let its affinity for warmth fool you. The tree can tolerate temperatures that dip to minus 17 Celsius for as short time. The Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem requires very little care to flourish. It benefits from an application of fertilizer in the spring and it will tolerate springtime pruning. A tough hardy tree, the Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem is a welcome addition to any garden. Its year round beauty makes it a focal point wherever it is planted.

Alnus Incana Grey Alder Multi & Single Stem Trees for Sale

Alnus Incana Grey Alder Multi & Single Stem Trees for Sale

Alnus Incana, also known as Grey Alder Tree, is an exceptionally hardy variety, noted for its attractive foliage. This small to mid-sized, deciduous tree and these specimens are mature trees which can be used for specimen planting.Sharing all the noteworthy qualities with the Common Alder Alnus Glutinosa, Alnus Incana gets its common name from the grey felted underside of its foliage. The leaves are typical for the species, dark green and leathery with doubly serrated edges. Not unlike its close relatives, this tree produces sticky young growth and a profusion of yellow catkins during March. The male catkins drop as the flowering season ends, while the female catkins harden into wood-like cones with winged seeds. The highly-decorative cones remain on the three as the seasons pass, offering particular interest throughout the following winter.Same as it is the case with the Common Alder, the Grey Alder Tree is a reliable performer in poor conditions. Not only does Alnus Incana tolerate poor soils, it will fix nitrogen from the air, resulting in the improvement of the soil it is planted in. Alnus Incana tolerates any type of soil, regardless of its fertility and drainage. Grey Alder is not bothered by overly wet soils nor drought, and it will not mind urban pollution. For best results, however, plant this cultivar in moist, but well-drained soil, in full sun to dappled shade. Introduced to the United Kingdom as far back as the 18th century, Grey Alder Tree is fully hardy in Britain and Ireland. Tough and robust, this tree will adapt and survive even in the severest European climates, where temperature drop far lower than 20 degrees below zero. Strong, cold winds and frost will not damage it, whether it is grown in an exposed or a sheltered location in the garden.Vigorous, Grey Alder will achieve a maximum size of over 12 metres in height and over 8 metres in width. However, as it is a long-lived cultivar, the expected growth is in a period of 20 to 50 years. Considered low-maintenance, the multi-stemmed habit of this deciduous tree needs very little to stay healthy and tidy. As the foliage drops to midwinter, lightly prune, removing any dead, damaged, or congested shoots from the tree.Grey Alder is a versatile, highly-decorative tree that will thrive in any conditions. Plant it en masse to reclaim land or create a stunning thicket in woodland gardens. The multi-stemmed habit of this tree makes it a good candidate for a specimen plant or a backdrop in mixed shrub borders. Suitable for coastal and city gardens, and particularly recommended for gardens with poor soil, where this tree can encourage a significant improvement in soil quality.You might be interested in our selection of deciduous trees or our collection of large and mature trees.
