Description
- This stunning ornamental tree features deep purple leaves which become a copper colour in the autumn months
- A strong, single-stemmed trunk with a spreading crown that offers dappled shade beneath the canopy
- Fully hardy, this tree can easily withstand temperatures down to -20°C
- A true statement tree whose sizeable stature (up to 30m tall) and striking colour makes it perfect for large gardens
- Small catkins appear in April and May
- Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post
- Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth
