Garden Trees

There is one thing for sure a Tree is for life!

A garden without a tree no matter how small, just isn't a garden.

Some of us are fortunate to have plenty of space to plant trees. Whether a Grove, Coppice or a small stand. A Beautiful single specimen, a tree in a container or group of just 3 there is a tree out there for every ones situation.

Trees can be as small as say less than one metre or get to grow to 30 metres+!

At the nursery we do like our trees and you will find a good range.

Tree planting season is usually from October - March.
Trees can be planted all year round but need a lot more care to establish if planted in the Summer period.
We love to help you find something thats going to work for you, so please visit and hopefully we can advise you.
We can also deliver them. Unfortunately we don't provide a planting service, however, we do have some experts we can put you in touch and get it planted successfully.

Please find below a selection of trees we are stocking this season. Please be aware this is a guide and some varieties may not be available all of the time.

AGM (Award of Garden Merit) means this is a recommended choice by the RHS (Royal Horticultural Society) and has performed well in trials.
