Norway spruce is a large, pyramidal evergreen. It typically matures to a height of around 45meters and is noted for its fast growth rate. Its branches are dense with needle-like, deep green foliage.
Norway Spruce likes a position of full sunlight in well draining soils. It requires low maintenance and attracts birds. It has no real disease or insect problems. Great for large lawns, parks and woodland areas. | Liquidambar styraciflua

| Content | | The Gumball tree has a dense rounded head grafted onto a straight trunk. Autumn colour is vibrant yellow-gold then turning brilliant shades of burgundy red. Gorgeous focal point tree for small spaces. Makes a good container specimen for your patio. Lush spring and summer foliage, and lovely autumn colours.
The Gumball tree makes for a beautiful specimen grown in rows for some simple formality or works perfectly as a feature tree on it’s own in a centre piece of a courtyard or a garden. It has a magical looking flower which comes out green in Spring, it is truly like nothing you’ve ever seen before. The flowers then develop into spiny, spherical, green fruiting in autumn.
The Gumball tree prefers a sunny position but will tolerate part shade and a wide range of soil types, including sandy or clay soils. It performs best in a well drained soil but can tolerate wet conditions. The Gumball tree will form a natural ball shape on it’s own, but you can prune it in Winter if you need to restrict it’s size. | |
