Albizia julibrissin Ombrella Tree or Silk Tree Ombrella UK

Albizia julibrissin Ombrella Tree or Silk Tree Ombrella UK

Albizia julibrissin Ombrella Tree or the Silk Tree is a showy deciduous tree with a broad spreading crown. The Silk Tree doesn’t get very large staying between 2-6 metres tall making it ideal for smaller gardens. Albizia julibrissin Ombrella has beautiful light green leaves that resemble ferns or feathers in their shape and are between 20-45 cm in length. It has gorgeous flowers that look like sprays of pink silk threads and are sometimes white or yellowish in the centre. The Silk Tree blooms from July to September and often attracts bees and butterflies to the garden with its colourful, aromatic blossoms. Each night the Silk Tree’s flowers close and then re-open the following morning. The Silk Tree has a grey bark and may develop vertical stripes as it matures. Albizia julibrissin Ombrella grows long, flat seeds pods that resemble peas. These pods mature from green to brown through the summer. Each pod contains several seeds. Albizia trees are native to parts of the subtropics including Iran, China, and Korea. In many areas Albizia varieties are used as forage for livestock. Unlike other Albizia species, the Albizia julibrissin Ombrella was bred to be more cold hardy and can survive winters in the UK and Ireland. It will tolerate temperatures as low as to -25° Celsius. Albizia julibrissin Ombrella also has darker leaves and bolder coloured flowers than other varieties of Albizia. The Silk Tree is wonderfully low maintenance. There’s no need to prune it. It will naturally develop an umbrella shaped crown which makes it often sought after as a shade tree. Its airy flowers and unique leaves make it an excellent focal point for any garden.Your Albizia julibrissin Ombrella tree should be planted in a warm area of the garden with full sun. It will do best in areas sheltered from strong winter winds. Another advantage of the Silk Tree is that it actually does best in poor or only slightly fertile soil, a great opportunity to bring life to an underperforming area of your garden. It also does best in soil that is neutral to alkaline. The care for Silk Trees is minimal. They benefit from occasional watering and autumn mulching. Mulch should be removed in spring as soon as it starts to warm up to allow the soil around the roots to warm up.

Magnolia Kobus Tree Northern Japanese Magnolia Tree

Magnolia Kobus Tree Northern Japanese Magnolia Tree

Magnolia Kobus or the Northern Japanese Magnolia is a beautiful, slender small magnolia tree that reaches a maximum height of just 10 metres. It fits into almost all gardens schemes and particularly likes chalky soils.Magnolia Kobus is a popular deciduous small Japanese tree. Its fragrant white flowers are one of the first colours to emerge in April, sometimes March, after a long dark winter. The flowers are large, pure white blooms measuring up to 10 cm wide. Each bloom is individually comprised of six distinct snow white petals. This is not a tree for the impatient gardener though, because it can take up to 12-15 years for flowers to emerge. It is a slow growing beauty that’s in it for the long run. However, once you have waited out its maturity this is a regular, abundant bloomer. Flowers are followed by foliage and pink fruits with scarlet seeds that appear in late summer. The large leaves measuring up to 15 cm long are borne in thin ovals of a mid-green hue. They turn yellow in autumn and fall with the frosts.How Hardy is Magnolia KobusNorthern Japanese Magnolia is beautiful but it is extremely tough.

Pruning is not required, but you can remove broken or crossed stems in mid-summer after the flowers have finished and the leaves have appeared.Although tough, flower buds may be damaged by late frosts, so it is best to site your Magnolia Kobus in a sheltered position with full sun that is free from freezing winds. Treat it to a thick layer of mulch at the beginning of each year for good healthy growth.Magnolia Kobus is a truly beautiful tree that stops passers-by in their tracks. If you have the patience to wait for an extraordinary flower then this stunning and fragrant tree is the one for you. For a small-sized evergreen option see Magnolia Grandiflora Little Gem.

Syringa Vulgaris or Common Lilac for Sale Buy Online UK

Syringa Vulgaris or Common Lilac for Sale Buy Online UK

Syringa Vulgaris or the Common Lilac, was a staple of British gardens in the 20th century but it fell out of fashion in the 1960s. These beautiful deciduous shrubs are rapidly making a comeback because of their stunning flowers and easy growth habit. Originally introduced as far back as the 16th century, Common Lilac is today very much a heritage plant back in fashion. The vast range of garden lilacs originated from this plant.In spring Common Lilac sprouts fresh new light-green foliage. These oval leaves with a pointed tip measure 2-12 cms in length and remain in place until the frosts of winter, but it is during May that Common Lilac comes into its own with masses of highly-scented light purple flowers. Syringa Vulgaris blooms grow as tiny, densely packed flowers hanging down in 8-18cms panicles. Butterflies and bees love lilac as it provides nectar throughout the summer. Lilac rivals buddleja as a butterfly bush. The glorious blooms ripen into winged seeds pods measuring around 1-2 cms long, which split open in autumn and release helicopter seeds.Height and Spread of Syringa VulgarisCommon Lilac is a fast-growing shrub or small tree that will reach a maximum height of six metres and spread over three metres within twenty years. It can be kept smaller with regular pruning.How Hardy is Syringa VulgarisCommon Lilac is a very hardy shrub that will survive sub-zero UK winters if its roots are kept from waterlogged soils.How To Use Syringa VulgarisCommon Lilac can be grown anywhere, but it does need some space to ensure it doesn’t crowd out less vigorous plants. As a specimen shrub or tree that’s cut back each year it is stunning, particularly older specimens that develop a twisted, gnarled rugged bark.  Common Lilac can also be used as a flowering hedge or partition to mark areas of the garden.If you want to grow Lilac in a container it’s best to choose a smaller, more compact variety such as Syringa Meyeri Palibin.How To Care For Syringa VulgarisCommon Lilac is very easy to grow. It prefers full sun but is happy in partial shade too, and any garden soil is suitable, including chalky soils as long as it drains well.Some people are put off lilacs because they can become bushy and leggy, but this is easily avoided with yearly pruning. In its winter dormancy cut back a third of the new branch growth. A third is enough as it flowers on last year’s wood. Annual pruning ensures a bigger, better flower display as well as containing its height.Syringa Vulgaris is a colourful and deliciously scented garden shrub that deserves more use. It is one of the easiest to grow and puts on a stunning flower display in spring.
