A well-known native, British tree. The Mountain Ash or Rowan tree are considered to be magical guardians against black witches, enchantment and other sinister forces and commonly have been a feature of churchyards to keep watch over the spirits of the deceased. Believe that if you will and we think each house should have one!
This is spreading tree with rich green leaves that turn almost florescent red and yellow in autumn, especially after cool summers, such as that of 2007. Clusters of small white flowers mask the tree in late spring. Similarly, clusters of wonderful crimson berries are a real attraction in autumn.
The berries are soon eaten by birds making it ideal for a wild or woodland garden and planting a number of trees as a copse will create a birds paradise! Mountain Ash or Rowan is a conical-shaped tree and copes with harsh conditions, sometimes seen on the sides of mountains but it is also ideal for a small, urban gardens.
A medium height tree, so expect a height of up to 6m (20ft) after 20 years.
Message card included at no additional cost if required.
