Tree Gift
All the trees are sown from British seed. They are specially grown for maximum root development - the best start a tree can get. They are from quality certified stock and carry an EEC Plant Passport for export requirements. They are grown in pots so that they can be transplanted throughout the year and not just "in season" as is the case for bare rooted stock. The pot also protects the root system during transit and sustains the tree while waiting to be planted out in its new home. The description of the tree and the full planting instructions below are included with every gift.
All tree gifts come with a free personalised aluminum plant marker and free gift wrapping.
Available trees: Field Maple, Silver Birch, Hawthorn, Hazel, Crab Apple, Bird Cherry, Wild Cherry, Rowan, Oak, Holly.
