Acer Davidii. Snake Bark Maple. Snakebark Maple. Acer Trees

Acer Davidii. Snake Bark Maple. Snakebark Maple. Acer Trees

Acer Davidii or Snake Bark MapleAs an ornamental tree, Acer Davidii has much to commend it. It is a maple tree that is native to China and belongs to a family of maples known as the snake bark maple due to the striking striped nature of the bark. Emerging new shoots in the spring are an eye-catching pink. As the bark matures, it turns olive green and paler vertical stripes develop. These eventually come to resemble green and white snake like stripes.For those of us with smaller outside spaces to populate, Acer Davidii is a small tree with a nice rounded shape of the crown. On maturity, it will reach a maximum height of between 10 and 15 metres. In early spring, the snake bark maple produces racemes of small yellow flowers, followed by winged helicopter seeds. Its foliage is green, maturing to a dramatic orange and yellow in the autumn.Left to its own devices, the snakebark maple tends to develop multi-stems, all the better for showing off the lovely green and white striped bark.In terms of aspect, snakebark maple trees like to have a sheltered spot, although they are fully hardy for UK climates. Because of the beauty of these small ornamental trees and the striking serpentine bark, Acer Davidii trees tend be planted as a focal point. It is a stunning tree to have in containers.

Rosa American Pillar. Rose American Pillar Rambling Rose

Rosa American Pillar. Rose American Pillar Rambling Rose

Rosa American Pillar Rambling RoseThe Rosa American Pillar is far more hardy than most rambling rose bushes. It grows to a height of 300 to 600 centimeters. Also called the Rose American Pillar this Rambling Rose is an excellent climber for garden structures, fences, arbors, pergolas or walls. It features long, arching branches that boast a bevy pink and white flowers. The rambler rose cultivar bears a striking resemblance to wild rose bushes.The blooms of the Rambling Rose are singular and feature bright pink petals with a white core. Each rose blossom measures about 5.5 centimeters across. The brightly coloured flowers appear in clusters along the arching canes of the rose bush. Unfortunately, unlike other rose bushes such as Aloha, the blossoms of the Rosa American Pillar boast no fragrance, but the rambler’s distinct beauty makes up for its lack of heady perfume. The rambler produces flowers virtually non-stop from spring until autumn. Following flowering, Rose American Pillar develops bright red hips that bear a striking resemblance to cherries. The hips are a favourite foods source for birds and woodland creatures. They provide visual interest, especially during the autumn months. The Rose American Pillar grows and flowers best when planted in full sun. It can tolerate shade but requires at least six hours of sun per day to develop properly. A shady location will also diminish flower production and can make the rambler take on a lanky appearance. Also, the lack of sunlight can promote powdery mildew. For best growth, choose a planting location that is well-draining and rich in organic matter. Keep the soil evenly moist to encourage the rambler to develop a strong root system. Once established, it can withstand periods of short drought. To promote flowering, fertilize the Rose American Pillar in the spring and fall using a general purpose fertilizer or rose-specific fertilizer. Follow the directions on the fertilizer’s label for application ratios. Rosa American Pillar can be pruned in the late summer for regular maintenance. If you want to severely trim back the rambler then you should wait until late autumn or early winter. Dr. Van Fleet developed the Rose American Pillar cultivar in 1907 and since its early inception, this variety of rambling rose has become a popular addition to many gardens around the world. Its vigorous growth, reliability, and hardy nature make it virtually care free. If you are seeking a profuse rambler that puts on a non-stop flower display all season than the Rambling Rose might be the perfect addition to your garden. Plant it in a location where its sheer size and breathtaking beauty can truly be appreciated.

Corylus Maxima Purpurea. Purple-leaved Filbert. Purple Leaf

Corylus Maxima Purpurea. Purple-leaved Filbert. Purple Leaf

Corylus Avellana Maxima Purpurea or Purple-leaved FilbertA near relative of the common hazelnut (corylus), Purple-leaved Filbert (Latin name Corylus Maxima Purpurea), is a large deciduous shrub with spectacular purple foliage. Robust and hardy, this tree-like shrub with edible nuts is a great choice for a statement plant or mixed shrub borders.In the spring, before the leaves unfold, pendulous, blush pink catkins appear on the shrub, gracing the naked twigs. Soon after, the foliage develops. The large, heart-shaped, deep purple leaves are late to drop, staying on the branches well into the early winter months. The edible nuts that follow, called cobnuts or filberts, are very similar to cultivated hazelnuts. Although the husk of the nuts is elongated and purple-tinged, the taste is the same. Cobnuts are usually harvested in late summer, hence the name - they were traditionally brought to church for the celebration of St. Philibert's Day, which is on August 20th. Native to southeastern Europe, Corylus Maxima Purpurea can withstand temperatures well below -20 degrees, and isn’t bothered by strong, cold winds. Fully hardy in the UK, Purple-leaved Filbert is remarkably robust and resistant to frost. Easy to care for, this ornamental shrub isn’t fussy when it comes to location. It can thrive in most soils, including chalk, sand and loam, and it won’t mind being in partial shade. However, it’s best to plant Purple-leaved Filbert in full sun, to ensure that the purple shade of the foliage remains vivid and vibrant.The Purpurea variety of Corylus is a large, tree-like shrub, and it will need space to develop fully. Although not vigorous, it can grow to be 4 to 8 metres tall and 2.5 to 4 metres wide. Low-maintenance and of good constitution, this deciduous shrub won’t need regular pruning, just routine removal of dead and damaged branches. If you want to encourage the production of nuts, train Purple Leaf Filbert as a goblet-shaped shrub.Although prized for its crop, Purple-leaved Filbert is mostly grown for its stunning, dark purple foliage. The plum coloured leaves add a touch of drama to the garden, especially when contrasted with evergreen shrubs. The multiple seasons of interests, as well as its attractive features, make Purple-leaved Filbert an excellent choice for a statement plant. Since it’s not bothered by strong winds and frost, it’s often planted as a windbreak, or in mixed shrub borders for coastal gardens.
