| Description | Laurus nobilis 'Bay Tree'
Native to the Mediterranean, the bay tree is well known for its culinary use, often added to soups and stews. It is an upright, hardy evergreen tree with deep green, aromatic foliage. Leaves are glossy and oval in shape and hang from red-brown branches. In spring, yellow buds appear, opening to clusters of fluffy yellow flowers, adding a lovely contrast amongst the foliage. Tough, beautiful and useful, this tree lends itself well to hedging and is also an excellent choice for topiary.
16" pot size, approximately 5-6ft in height. | 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. | Wisteria sinensis 'Alba'
Chinese White Wisteria is the gorgeous white variety of the highly popular Wisteria sinensis. The sinensis varieties are very popular due to their blooms appearing on bare vines in the spring, before the leaves appear. It makes for a gorgeous feature of solid, fragrant colour.
Wisteria sinensis is a very hardy twisting vine that prefers a full sun position in a moist, well drained humus soil. The gorgeous white flowers of the Wisteria sinensis 'Alba' are slightly smaller than that of the Wisteria floribunda 'Alba', hanging 18-30cm long off the vine.
