| Description | Ginkgo biloba
The Ginkgo or Maidenhair Tree is remarkably known as a 'living fossil', as it is the sole survivor of an ancient group of trees that date back to beyond the time of the dinosaurs. It is a perfect specimen or feature tree due to its long life and showy light green leaves which turn golden in Autumn. The leaves are an interesting ruffled shape.
The Maidenhair Tree remains virtually unchanged today and represents the only living bridge between 'higher' and 'lower' plants (between ferns and conifers). Maidenhair trees can be extremely long-lived, the oldest recorded individual being 3,500 years old. | Prunus armeniaca
The Divinity is a heavy-bearing apricot that, once mature, is an early-bloomer. It produces medium-sized clingstone fruit that are sweet to taste straight off the tree, and are exceptionally good for drying. A must have, as once it begins fruiting you'll have more apricots then you know what to do with! | Cercis canadensis 'Flame'
The 'Flame' Redbud is a small feature tree, that unlike other Redbuds, produces vibrant red new growth and double-petal rose-pink flowers. It is a gorgeous deciduous tree that loves both full sunlight and partial shade. This tree is butterfly and bee attracting and is late flowering compared to other varieties, but well worth the wait!
