Trees


Trees are excellent focal points in the garden, adding shade, providing foliage and flower interest, and often adding rich autumn colour to the garden. Trees are low-maintenance plants, requiring little pruning and watering beyond their first few years. With a range of sizes available in our superb value range you’re sure to find a tree to suit your garden, from large specimen trees to smaller Acers, which are ideal trees to grow in containers on the patio. To get the best from your trees see our How to plant trees and shrubs guide.

Strawberry Tree

Arbutus unedo 'Compacta'

 Customer Review Rating
  • New in 2012
  • Evergreen shrub
  • Year-round interest
For year round interest, this superb Strawberry Tree is hard to beat. Arbutus unedo 'Compacta' forms a neat evergreen shrub or small tree that can be easily grown in a sheltered border or container. The small, lantern-shaped autumn flowers are followed by rounded scarlet red fruits that take a full year to ripen - so fruits and flowers can often be seen on the plant at the same time! Although edible, the fruits of the Strawberry Tree have a sharp aftertaste, so they best made into jams and preserves for a sweeter Guava-like flavour. Height and spread: 150cm (59"). Supplied in 9cm pot.
