Product Information
These are our Silver Birch - Betula Pendula 60-90cms
The birch is one of the most common of Britain’s native broad-leaved trees. The Silver birch grows well all over Britain although Downy Birch is more common in Scotland. It grows as quite a tall tree although sometimes will grow small like a shrub but always with elegant, drooping branches, a light canopy and whip like twigs.
These are fully hardy field Grown Broadleaves.
Once these Broadleaves have made root in the soil you can expect them to grow an average of 2ft per year.
We would advise planting these every 2ft (60cms) to give you a good hedge.
We advise using a support cane & ties for the first 12 months until the conifers have made root in the soil.
We would advise to give the best possible start to use Merediths Plant food, which is a slow release food, and RHS Rootgrow™ Gel to help the broadleaves make better root in the soil.
These broadleaves are supplied bare root in bags, and will need to be signed for.
