- Highlights
- Variety Specifications
- Planting & Care
- A cornerstone of British wildlife, this vital tree supports over 2,300 species, including insects, birds, and small mammals.
- Its acorns provide a crucial food source for animals like deer, squirrels, and badgers.
- Features iconic clusters of lobed, deep green leaves on twisting branches, with yellow catkins in spring and acorns later in the year.
- Displays beautiful autumn colour as leaves turn to shades of orange and golden-brown.
- A hardy, fast-growing tree that develops a broad, rounded crown as it matures.
- Ideal as a feature tree in a large lawn or woodland garden, or can be maintained as a hedge. Its shallow tap root doesn't compete for water or nutrients.
- Supplied in an EcoPot™, which uses 70% less plastic, is fully recyclable, and reduces root spiraling.
- Professionally pruned before dispatch to ensure a well-shaped tree and encourage robust, bushy growth.

Product Specifications

As bare roots are stored without any soil or pot, they will easily settle themselves when in contact with soil in your garden.

- Eventual Height: 12m
- Age: Typically 18 to 36 months old at dispatch.
