Field-grown or container-grown?

We supply both, and both are peat-free. The right choice depends on when you want to plant and your budget.

Field-grown (root-balled)

Grown in the open ground and lifted in the dormant season, from late autumn to early spring. The best value, with more tree for your money, natural roots and no compost at all.

Container-grown

Grown in pots so they can be planted all year round. Ideal for spring and summer projects, events and fixed deadlines, with minimal root disturbance.

Tree sizes & specifications

Girth, clear stem, height and root types explained, with tips on writing a tree specification.
