Trees are our first love and most of our fields are dedicated to the propagating, grafting, budding and growing of trees.

The trees in our own fields are mainly deciduous and traditional favourites with a few modern twists thrown in. Beech, birch, oak, maples, Limes plus many, many more and a range of varieties within each species. Some upright, some for smaller gardens, for avenues, for shelter, for a play place for the kids whatever your requirements for a tree within your space we have it.This is just a small selection and if you don’t see what you’re looking for please do contact us.

We can advise on spring interest, on autumn colour, we have evergreen trees and we have a range of the most spectacular specimens with cubed heads, with roof forms and espaliered forms trees.

  • Acer Crimson King / Red Norway Maple

    The Norway maple is a fast-growing tree, eventually quite large but easily pruned to confine its spread for many years. It is a handsome species, spreading to make a satisfying rounded crown and sufficiently robust to be grown in exposed positions, even as a windbreak. The foliage of 'Crimson King' is quite dramatic, dark reddish brown when young, becoming crimson purple for the rest of the year.

  • Aesculus hippocastanum / Horse chestnut

    The Horse Chestnut is a superb tree with lots of advantages. It will grow in any soil, is absolutely huge, and has wonderful white flowers at the end of spring, running into early summer, when it is definitely at its best. The flowers are followed by masses of conkers inside their spiny shells. There are alternatives but this species is still the best, and it has been given the Award of Garden Merit (AGM) by the Royal Horticultural Society

  • Betula Jacquimontii / Himalayan Birch

    Betula 'Jacquemontii' is a distinctive upright tree noted for its dazzling white stems that look good all year round even when the foliage has gone. Fresh green summer foliage turns rich gold colour in the Autumn. Although beautiful as a specimen tree these beautiful trees are excellent to create an avenue effect of in groups of 3 or 5 in an impressive bed. The wispy, light foliage makes it ideal for underplanting as it lets a good amount of light through.
