| Description | Lagerstroemia indica x fauriei 'Tuscarora'
'Tuscarora' is one of the best of the dark fuchsia-pink flowering Lagerstroemia's. The flowers and highly ornamental bark make this tough small tree a useful specimen or screening tree.
Crepe Myrtles are adaptable to a range of conditions, heat and some dryness but requires adequate moisture during establishment. So can also be used well as a street tree. Mature growth: 6m x 4m wide. | Betula pendula
An elegant deciduous tree with soft, white bark.
• Small green leaves that turn vibrant yellow in autumn
• Beautiful feature tree, planted in groups or used along driveways, fence lines or avenues
• Low maintenance, tolerating frost, snow and drought once established. | Prunus yedoensis x subhirtella 'Snofozam'
Hands down the most popular feature tree, the Weeping Cherry tree! And it's no wonder why, with little maintenance and year round interest it's a definite crowd pleaser.
• The most narrow of weeping cherries, Falling Snow's branches hang directly down
• Covered in little white blossoms in the spring, green foliage in summer changing to an awesome display of autumn colour
• Grows in most soils, disliking heavy clay and soggy soils
