A medium sized (15m) picturesque tree with attractive foliage. Its leaves, shaped like an open hand, unfurl pinkish and turn a spectacular yellow/red in the autumn. The flowers are not showy but are valued by bees for honey making. Seed heads are winged and fall as "helicopters" or "keys". The timber is very fine grained and good for turning and veneers. The sap is sugary and used to make syrup or wine.
Happy in shade and on most soil types. Very tolerant of air pollution.
About the trees
All the trees are sown from British seed. They are specially grown for maximum root development - the best start a tree can get. They are from quality certified stock and carry an EEC Plant Passport for export requirements. They are grown in pots so that they can be transplanted throughout the year and not just "in season" as is the case for bare rooted stock. The pot also protects the root system during transit and sustains the tree while waiting to be planted out in its new home. The description of the tree and the full planting instructions below are included with every gift.
Free personalised plant marker
To ensure your gift is cherished & nurtured for years to come each gift comes with a high quality plant marker, carefully engraved to your requirements. Our plant markers are made from specially etched and anodised aluminum, a material of traditional character, which will not compete with the plants for attention, but will last for decades. They are used worldwide in Botanical Gardens and Research Institutions & gardens open to public including the National Trust.
The standard plant marker is 6cm x 10cm and can accommodate 30 characters and also include the common & Latin name of the chosen tree.
NB: You will be prompted to enter your plaque message during the checkout process.
If you want to say more we offer an upgrade to a larger plant marker (9cm x 15cm), which can take 120 characters, for an additional £5.00.
Free gift wrapping
Each tree gift comes in a cute drawstring hessian bag. We then add a greetings card printed for the occasion with your personal message. Ribbons of your choice are added to the tree & swirled around the posting tube. We finish with a sprinkle of suitable confetti for the occasion! All tree gifts are packed in attractive purpose made tubes that have been tested against the rigors of postage by Royal Mail.
