How to Choose the Right Tree
With flowering cherries, colourful maples, elegant birches, fruit trees and screening varieties all included in our Summer Sale, choosing the right tree depends on what you want your garden to achieve. Here's a simple guide to help you decide.
For Spring Blossom
Choose flowering cherries, magnolias, redbuds and lilacs for spectacular spring displays that bring colour, fragrance and seasonal interest to the garden.
For Autumn Colour
Maples, rowans, sweet gums and tupelos are excellent choices for vibrant autumn colour, producing stunning shades of red, orange and gold.
For Small Gardens
Compact varieties such as amelanchiers, ornamental pears, Japanese maples and smaller flowering cherries provide year-round interest without overwhelming the space.
For Screening & Privacy
Hornbeam, beech, holm oak and photinia help create privacy, shelter and year-round structure while enhancing the garden's overall design.
