Sophora Japonica Regent Japanese Pagoda Regent for Sale

Sophora Japonica Regent Japanese Pagoda Regent for Sale

Sophora Japonica Regent or Japanese Pagoda Regent is a cultivar of the Japanese Pagoda tree which was developed at the Princeton Nurseries in the United States in 1964. This fast-growing deciduous tree forms a broad, rounded, semi-open crown. In spring, it will be one of the last trees to leaf out, waiting until late May for the narrow, pinnate glossy dark green leaves to emerge, providing dappled shade throughout the summer months and then turning a pale yellow before they fall in autumn. The Japanese Pagoda Regent tree differs from other Sophora Japonica cultivars as it flowers at an earlier age, possibly as soon as five years. The fragrant creamy-white flowers appear in late summer, hanging in drooping clusters up to 30 cm in length. The long-lasting flowers are followed by green pods up to 20 cm long, which turn brown and persist into the winter. Height and Spread of Sophora Japonica RegentSophora Japonica Regent will rapidly grow to a mature height of 12-15 metres and spread of 8-10 metres, with an annual growth of up to 60 centimetres or more per year. How Hardy Is Sophora Japonica Regent?Japanese Pagoda Regent is hardy throughout most of the UK, even in severe winters.How to Use Sophora Japonica RegentJapanese Pagoda Regent is an excellent tree for city use, and can be used as a specimen tree in a lawn, where grass can grow under its dappled shade, or planted alongside a roadway to create a living barrier. Planted close to a patio, you will have the benefit of both the summer shade and the fragrant flowers of the Japanese Pagoda Regent tree. How to Care for Sophora Japonica RegentPlant Japanese Pagoda Regent in full sun in an exposed or sheltered position in well-drained sand, loam or chalk soil. Tolerant of salt spray, it can be used on coastal properties, and its high tolerance for urban pollution and paving makes it a very popular choice for city gardens. Once the Japanese Pagoda Regent tree is established it is very drought-tolerant, and in fact will suffer in too wet a soil. Pruning is not necessary to maintain the attractive rounded shape of the crown, but if desired, it should be done in early spring. Sophora Japonica Regent is an excellent landscape or ornamental shade tree for UK gardens. It is drought and pollution tolerant with the bonus of fragrant flowers in summer.

Acer Platanoides Norway Maple Multi Stem Trees Root Balled

Acer Platanoides Norway Maple Multi Stem Trees Root Balled

Acer Platanoides, which is commonly known as the Norway Maple, is a large and fast-growing deciduous tree with striking autumnal foliage. Norway Maple’s five-lobed foliage emerges bright green in spring and turns a deeper shade over the summer months. It is a stunning autumnal tree when the leaves turn bright yellow and orange with hints of red. Because the leaves are so large, measuring 20 cm, the colours are particularly noticeable. It also holds the RHS Perfect for Pollinators title for its attractive sweet-smelling clusters of small yellow flowers that adorn its bare branches in racemes before leaf growth. During the winter months this deciduous tree holds a pleasing architectural shape that gives height to a low-growing garden. There are many varieties of Norway Maple, such as Acer Platanoides Crimson Sentry with its disctinctive red leaves throughout the growing season and Norway Maple Drummondii with variegated summer foliage. However this regular variety is a multi stem Norway Maple with golden autumnal foliage. This means it has been shaped to grow on several stems rather than one thick leader trunk. By contrast, the Crimson Sentry trees have a single clear stem full standard shape. How Hardy Is Acer PlatanoidesAcer Platanoides is native to Europe, so it is able to withstand the coldest European winters. It is frost hardy, drought hardy, and once established can tolerate temporary flooding. It is a good choice to plant near paving and is very popular for street scenes. How To Use Acer PlatanoidesOver the course of 20 -50 years this handsome tree can grow higher than 12 metres in height and eight metres in spread.  The multi stem shape is beautiful and perfect as a specimen tree for the lawn where it will provide shade in the summer months followed by spectacular autumnal colours. You can grow woodland plants beneath its canopy such as hellebores and ferns.  Norway Maple is wind-resistant, and makes an excellent windbreak in breezy gardens. It also deals well with pollution, so if you live near a busy road this is a good choice.  Children universally love Maple for its autumn colours and winged fruit, better known as helicopter seeds, which measure 3.5 – 4.5 cm long.How To Care For Acer PlatanoidesA Multi Stem Norway Maple will tolerate all soil types of any pH, and is a particularly good choice for chalky soils. It needs plenty of space, so it’s best to keep it away from walls with enough room to spread. Water Acer Platanoides regularly in the first few years as it becomes established and puts down roots. There is no need to prune this glorious tree as it maintains its own pleasing shape. If you are looking for a low maintenance architectural tree with vivid autumnal colours and plenty of shade in the summer the Norway Maple is a beautiful and practical choice. This multi-stem Norway Maple comes root-balled ready for immediate planting. See also Acer Platanoides Drummondii which is a variegated variety.

It works beautifully as a standalone specimen or planted in groups for a dramatic, woodland effect. Its dramatic copper pink peeling bark provides year-round interest, particularly in winter gardens. It's often used to line driveways, avenues, or as a backdrop to perennial borders. The tree's light canopy allows for underplanting with shade-tolerant species, enhancing layered planting schemes.In cooler climates, Himalayan Birch is an excellent landscape tree given its graceful form and ability to mix well with evergreen trees and conifers. How To Care For Betula Utilis:For optimal growth, plant Betula Utilis in a location with full sun to partial shade. It prefers cool, moist, well-drained soils but can tolerate light clay and sandy conditions. Regular watering is crucial during dry periods, especially when young. Mulching helps retain soil moisture and regulate temperature. Pruning should be minimal, done in late summer or early autumn to prevent sap bleeding. Watch for common birch pests like aphids and bronze birch borers, and maintain overall tree health to minimize susceptibility.The peeling nature of the birch bark may tempt tidy-minded gardeners to regularly remove some of the strips of loose or hanging bark – and that won't do the tree any harm. However, it’s best not to overdo this as you could be at risk of damaging the living tissues just below the surface.
