Description

Pyrus fauriei 'Westwood'

Korean Sun™ This gorgeous well kept secret really does tick all the boxes.  It is extremely hardy and copes with poor soil, wind, drought, frost and slight boggy soils. At the same time it is an extremely attractive tree with lovely, well shaped, mid green foliage during the warmer months, colouring up to your traditional ornamental pear colours of yellow, orange and predominantly red come Autumn. 

Korean Sun Pear Trees tend to hold their Autumn foliage so you get to enjoy the show longer! This fabulous tree is virtually a dwarf, only reaching 4m in height with a rounded shape making it suitable for any garden.  It can be a feature tree (with it's stunning Spring blossom display), makes a great avenue tree or could be a screening tree along your fence.  Minimal care required for this fabulous pear so plant one now and enjoy!

Ulmus parvifolia

The bark of the Chinese Elm is a real stand out feature, as the tree sheds it in patches, creating the effect of a tapestry of varying browns and greys. Foliage is lush, shiny and green, and the tree is semi deciduous, turning golden in autumn, and keeping its leaves in warmer areas. It has also been noted by many Aussie gardeners in recent years that native birds enjoy the fruit of the Chinese Elm. 6"/14cm pot size
