    Tr = Bare Root Transplant

    All prices include VAT at 20%.

Hardy and slow growing, eventually forming a large round-headed native deciduous tree with pollen laden flowers on long catkins followed by acorns on long stems in autumn. Its distinctive bunches of smooth edged, deeply lobed leaves are soft and break down readily after falling to form a rich leaf mold. Good in hedgerows as it usually produces tap roots in early life, so it does not rob the surrounding plants of moisture and nutrients. Although it produces a broad crown, it does not prevent the hedge from growing well in its shade. Will become home to a copious number of insects and species of wildlife. Very long-lived, up to 200 years. Any ordinary well drained soil, tolerant of clay, producing best quality timber on heavy soil.

TREE 4.6 x 2.4m (15 x 8ft) in 20 years, ultimate height 30m (100ft).

Tr = Bare Root Transplant

Bare-Root Plants (Transplants)

Bare-root plants are sold without a pot/soil around the roots. This is a more cost effective and environmentally friendly way of growing plants. To ensure the best plant health we do not store our plants in cold storage, but they are left in our field or plant beds until they are ready for packing or collection.

Transplanted plants have been lifted from the ground and replanted. This encourages a better fibrous root system and makes the plant stronger and bushier.

Availability

Bare rooted plants are only available when the plants are dormant (typically from late November to March).

If a plant is currently out of stock because it is out of season (for example, bare rooted plants in summer) or we have sold out but we are expecting more to be available you can pre-order the plant. We only charge credit/debit cards when an order is despatched, not when an order is placed.
