Cydonia oblonga Rea’s Mammoth Quince Tree for Sale Online

Cydonia oblonga Rea’s Mammoth Quince Tree for Sale Online

Cydonia oblonga Rea’s Mammoth, Quince Rea’s Mammoth, is called Mammoth not for the size of the tree, but the size of its fruits! This variety of fruiting quince will provide heavy yields of large quinces every autumn.Originating in south west Asia, Cydonia oblonga have been grown for millennia, and were first recorded in England in 1275 when Edward I planted four trees at the Tower of London. Cydonia oblonga Rea’s Mammoth was bred in New York State in the 1870’s by Joseph Rea, and is notable for the size of fruit that it produces. The oval-shaped dark-green leaves have a white underside, making for an attractive contrast when a breeze is blowing. In autumn the foliage of Quince Tree Rea’s Mammoth turns yellow. In mid-spring, the tree is covered in small, fragrant, pale-pink flowers, which are followed by pear-shaped fragrant fruits which are green when immature and ripen to yellow in autumn, and can reach a size from 350-600 grams each!Hardy in most parts of the UK, Cydonia oblonga Rea’s Mammoth will grow to a mature height of 5-6 metres and spread of 4-6 metres in 10 to 20 years. It should be pruned in winter in a manner similar to apples to maintain vigorous fruit production. Quince Tree Rea’s Mammoth is self-fertile so does not need another variety planted nearby for cross-pollination. If planting more than one, space them 4.5 metres apart.Plant Cydonia oblonga Rea’s Mammoth in full sun in a sheltered position in moist but well-drained clay, loam or sandy soil with an acid to neutral pH. Add plenty of humus to create a deep, fertile soil, and mulch every spring with well-rotted manure or compost. Quince trees are sensitive to salt, so they will need protection from sea winds in coastal regions, but they are very tolerant of pollution, so can be planted in city gardens. They are deer resistant, and thus are perfect for country properties.In a small garden, a Cydonia oblonga Rea’s Mammoth tree will serve several duties, with attractive foliage creating shade throughout the season, fragrant spring flowers, and then the harvest of ornamental quince fruits in the late autumn. On a larger property, a small orchard of a variety of Quince trees would ensure heavy crops. Cydonia oblonga Rea’s Mammoth will provide your garden with a spring flower display, summer shade, and an autumn foliage show and harvest of fragrant fruits!Cydonia Oblonga is the family of fruiting quinces grown primarily for their fruit.

Philadelphus Virginal Fragrant Mock Orange Shub Buy UK

Philadelphus Virginal Fragrant Mock Orange Shub Buy UK

Philadelphus Virginal, more commonly known as Mock Orange Virginal, is a vigorous deciduous shrub with a heady strong scent that can be used to cover walls, fences and pergolas. Double white flowers with an orange blossom scent smother this plant in June and July. The dramatic effect of fluffy, pure white blooms on dark green foliage is a real show stopper. The pure white blooms open in bunches at the top of stems and all along its length.Mock Orange Virginal has an upright habit, scrambling up fences and walls with ease. It needs little horizontal space preferring to climb upwards to a height of three metres. If you want to attract bees and butterflies to your garden mock orange virginal is a great easy-to-grow choice. Eventual height over around 20 years 2.5-3m if left unpruned.How Hardy Is Philadelphus Virginal?Despite looking delicate and smelling heavenly the mock orange virginal is incredibly tough. It’s fully hardy throughout the UK withstanding winter snows and frosts. Its clinging nature and salt tolerance makes it a good plant for windy coastal conditions.How To Use Philadelphus VirginalMock orange virginal suits the back of a flower border given its pure white and understated green tones. It will cover unsightly areas from spring to autumn when the foliage eventually drops with the first frosts. Place mock orange virginal near an open window or near a seating area to make the most of the heady scent. If you have a wild woodland garden you can’t beat a mock orange for a natural look, birds nest in its foliage and pollinators are attracted to the scent, but it can also be pruned to fit into a specific area for a smaller more formal garden. How To Care For Philadelphus VirginalMock Orange Virginal is best planted in full sun or partial shade against a climbing support such as a sturdy trellis or wire frame. It prefers fertile soil that drains well, and in these conditions it will flourish and grow vigorously.  It will cope with less fertile conditions but will grow at a slower pace. Mulch each spring and soak in hot conditions to prolong the flower show. Prune your mock orange virginal in late summer immediately after flowering has ceased. If you cut back one in four stems to ground level and remove any diseased, dead or crossed branches, a mock orange will spring back the following year in good health.

Picea Abies Nidiformis Norway Spruce Dwarf Conifer

Picea Abies Nidiformis Norway Spruce Dwarf Conifer

Picea Abies Nidiformis, or Norway Spruce Nidiformis, is an attractive, slow-growing evergreen dwarf conifer which makes an excellent landscaping plant. It is a dwarf variety of Norway Spruce that is wider than tall with short dark green needles. It has been awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit, always a good recommendation for UK gardeners!Native to the mountains of northern and central Europe, in its original state Norway Spruce can grow to a massive height, but Picea Abies Nidiformis is a dwarf cultivar developed to fit into the smallest of gardens. The fresh growth that appears in spring is a bright lime green, creating a pleasant contrast with the darker mature foliage. This evergreen can be depended upon to keep its needles all winter for reliable colour. As Norway Spruce Nidiformis grows, the flat top forms a shallow depression in the middle, giving it the nickname bird’s-nest spruce. Hardy across the UK in even the most severe of climates, Norway Spruce Nidiformis will grow 2-5 cm per year, reaching a mature height of 1-1.5 metres and spread of 2.5-4 metres in 20 to 50 years. No pruning is necessary.  Plant Picea Abies Nidiformis in full sun in any exposed or sheltered position in acid to neutral pH moist but well-drained loam, clay, or sand soil. Avoid planting on chalk soils. Tolerant of salt, it will be a reliable landscape addition in coastal gardens, and is highly tolerant of pollution so is perfect for city locations as well! Deer will not graze on Norway Spruce Nidiformis, so it is a good choice for country gardens, too. The small eventual size and slow growth habit of Norway Spruce Nidiformis makes it an ideal container plant where reliable, year-round foliage is desired, such as a roof terrace. Its low height suits it for foundation plantings or towards the front of a mixed border, where the new foliage of spring will add a bright green accent as spring bulbs and flowers bloom, and the darker green mature foliage will persist throughout the winter. Picea Abies Nidiformis adds low-maintenance interest in a rock garden. Its resistance to wind makes it a good planting in an exposed location, whether as a specimen plant or in a group.  Whether grown in combination with flowering plants, or as part of a low-maintenance rockery or alpine garden, Picea Abies Nidiformis is a hardy, reliable and attractive dwarf evergreen which can find a place in your garden!
