Overview

Among the best autumn colour of any tree

This is a truly unique Rowan which produces incredible fluffy corymbs of creamy flowers in early summer which, along with their plentiful fruit in autumn, prove very popular with wildlife and birds in particular. It's foliage produces one of the most spectacular autumn displays of any tree turning an incredible vibrant scarlet red.

The autumn berries are a gorgeous orange colour which is slightly lighter than the more red Commixta but according to the wildlife, they're just as tasty.The tree has a more compact, neater habit than the standard Commixta and is slightly smaller in size so perfect for a more confined space.. Like most Rowans, this is a very robust tree which will thrive in most conditions but does prefer a bit of sun and like slightly acidic soils.

Advice on hot and droopy plants

If your plants are looking a little wilted right now, don't worry! Plants like to be filled with water to keep their structure, and when it's hot that water evaporates.

Just give them an off-schedule watering and they'll be right as rain in no time! Be careful not to flood them - plants don't like extremes.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Larger pots (2L and above) are wrapped in waxed paper and then attached to a cardboard base so they stay stable in the box. The waxed paper prevents the compost from spilling out and gives the base some added protection from damp compost. For large numbers of plants, pallets may be used for shipping.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
