Because of the size of our pleached Flowering Scarlet Hawthorn trees (they are too tall for any courier delivery service!) all our Pleached Trees are delivered by our own transport, direct to you straight from our nursery. We usually use our own Land Rover and trailer and will always call you to arrange a mutually convenient day first. Delivery is still free for these beautiful trees but as they require a more bespoke approach to delivery, and we do need a minimum order of £1500 (ex VAT) to cover our costs. (We can often deliver smaller orders with a mileage based carriage charge, please do call our sales team on 01580 765600 or take a look at our delivery page)
Pleached Crab Apple trees are available for delivery to addresses in mainland England and Wales.
Pleached Flowering Scarlet Hawthorn trees are best planted with rootgrow to give them the best start, its also a good idea to add plenty of good quality garden compost or well-rotted farmyard manure at planting time (well mixed with the surrounding soil), and water consistently in the first year whilst they get establish. They also benefit from a generous layer of bark chippings or a similar organic mulch to retain moisture and discourage weeds in the early years after planting.
Our potted specimens may be planted out successfully at any time of year privided the planting site is not frozen or waterlogged.
Flowering Scarlet Hawthorn pleached trees are generally low maintenance, but they do require occasional pruning. Late autumn to early spring tend to be the best months to thin out any overgrown branches or to remove any dead or diseased growth.
