Collections:

A wonderful small, rounded tree with oval leaves and clusters of pink-tinged white flowers in late spring that are followed by yellow-green fruit in early autumn.

Growing Conditions:
Prefers neutral or alkaline soils, but thrives in all fertile (including heavy) soils.

Value To Wildlife:
Early flowering so good for insects. Fruits good for a range of wildlife.

Important Note:
This is a deciduous tree and so will shed its leaves in autumn, in order to protect itself from the cold winter weather. Come spring, it’ll burst back into bud and begin to flourish once more.

It is best to plant your trees within a week or two weeks of arrival.
Remember, when your trees arrive we advise to keep them upright, well-watered and away from strong sunlight and high winds.
