Trachycarpus Wagnerianus. Miniature Chusan Palm Tree. Palms UK

Trachycarpus Wagnerianus - although known as the Miniature Chusan Palm Tree - and often fondly referred to as WaggiesOriginating from Japan and Korea, this hardy palm is well used to surviving the typhoon season, so it copes well with exposed, windy positions. The leaves are much more rigid and compact than the very popular Trachycarpus Fortunei, also a hardy palm suited to growing outdoors in the UK. Trachycarpus Wagnerianus is one of the most beautiful of the palms that we are able to grow here in the UK and Ireland. Also known as Waggy, and Dwarf Chusan Palm, Trachycarpus Wagnerianus has its origins in Germany, where it was named by Ludwig Winter to honour his fellow horticulturalist, Albert Wagner. As it turns out, Wagner had imported a quantity of this more compact Trachycarpus from Japan; and eventually sold his entire inventory to Mr Winter. If you are seeking an exquisite specimen to bring an exotic style to your garden, Trachycarpus wagnerianus is certainly a specimen you should be adding.The hardiest of palms grown in our region, Dwarf Chusan Palm will tolerate snow, frost, and temperatures down to -15OC. Even in the strongest winds, this cold tolerant palm will maintain its shape and appearance. Unlike many exotics, this offering is truly a low maintenance delight.Waggies will grow to 5-6 metres in ultimate height, and about 2 metres in spread (over 50 years) ; and have a slow growth habit. They prefer full sun but can do well in partial shade exposures as well.  Provide a moist, rich, and well-drained soil media of near neutral, slightly acidic, or slightly alkaline pH.One of the most prominent features of Trachycarpus Wagnerianus is their small, stiff leaves, making them much tougher than the ‘standard’ and larger Trachycarpus Fortunei. Another feature of the smallish leaves is that aside from their jaunty, attractive appearance, they do make it easier to accommodate when space is at a premium.The popularity of this variety of Trachycarpus continues to grow across the UK and Ireland with its unique silhouette adding an outstanding architectural feature to your exotics. More compact than the Trachycarpus Fortunei and its markedly more hardy tolerance to our climate, this is an outstanding hardy palm to add to your garden space for this year.Paramount Plants specialises in these tropical plants that are hardy enough for the UK climate.

Camellia Japonica Eugenia de Montijo Red Flowering Camellia

Camellia Japonica Eugenia de Montijo Red Flowering Camellia

Camellia Japonica Eugenia de MontijoCamellia Eugenia de Montijo is an evergreen winter flowering camellia with bright red double flowers. Camellia Japonica originates from Japan, China Taiwan and South Korea and counts for over 90% of the world’s camellias. Selections from the original plants collected from the wild over hundreds of years of breeding have produced a wealth of varieties with varying degrees of hardiness and a full range of colour and form. Camellia Eugenia de Montijo is an example of a Galician cultivar from the Northern Spanish province  where it is a very well-know variety, perhaps less well known in the UK. Eugenia de Montijo is named after Napoleon III’s Grenada-born wife who had flaming red hair. This camelia has glossy green foliage and an upright growth habit. The leaves are mid-sized oval and typical of camellias. In late winter and early spring the medium-large blooms appear in double red rosettes and last many weeks. Throughout the summer Camellia Eugenia de Montijo grows new foliage and develops buds ready for the coming colder months. Camellia Eugenia de Montijo brightens a dull winter garden with its bright red flowers at a time when there’s little else about. It makes the perfect Christmas gift for gardeners as so many plants are not in flower at this time of year.Height And Spread of Camellia Japonica Eugenia de MontijoCamellia Eugenia de Montijo will reach a maximum height of 3 metres tall by 2 metres wide. How Hardy Is Camellia Japonica Eugenia de MontijoCamellia Eugenia de Montijo is UK winter hardy if its roots are well drained. It is originally a woodland plant and appreciates the shelter of taller trees. How To Use Camellia Japonica Eugenia de MontijoThis camellia looks good at the back of a shady mixed border and will grow on a slope as it likes well drained soil. It’s particularly suitable for low maintenance gardens, wildlife spaces for its early blooming flowers, and sheltered woodland gardens.You can grow Camellia Eugenia de Montijo in a container as a specimen bush if the container is very large and well-watered, but ensure the roots do not dry out. How To Care For Camellia Japonica Eugenia de MontijoCamellias thrive in acidic soil and do not like chalk. If the soil is too chalky their leaves will turn yellow. Prepare the planting hole with plenty of acid-based compost and top-dress it each year with an acidic mulch such as pine or bracken compost. If you have chalky soil its best to grow it in a container with ericaceous compost. Camellias need dappled light, prefer shelter, and enjoy moist but well-drained soil. Be careful not to bury the stem of Camellia Eugenia de Montijo in the planting hole as it does best in shallow depths.There’s no need to prune camellias but you can remove dead or diseased branches after the flowers are spent. Mulch well with ericaceous compost and water until established.

Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum. Blue Needle Giant Redwood

Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum. Blue Needle Giant Redwood

Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum is a magnificent tree which will in time reach a great height. This blue-needled variety of the giant Redwood needs to be carefully sited, but in the right place it will be a majestic tree indeed!Native to the north-west coast of the United States, the first redwood seeds and saplings were brought back to the UK by William Lobb in 1853, where they immediately became a sensation for their great height, which is certainly the outstanding characteristic of the species. This rather smaller cultivar Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum has attractive silver-blue needles which contrast well against darker green conifers, and a narrow columnar shape. The bark is a distinctive chestnut brown. Reliably winter hardy through most of the UK, Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum can top out at more than 50 metres in height with a spread of 10 metres after 50 to 80 years. It will grow up to 30 cm a year. Little or no pruning is required, and it is resistant to both deer and rabbits.Plant your Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum in moist, well-drained soil, preferably loam, sand or clay, deeply dug and with plenty of organic matter added. It will do well in an exposed location, as it will tolerate wind. Plant in full sun or light shade. Once well-established, Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum will tolerate dry conditions.   Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum is not a tree for the small garden. Even in a larger landscape, it needs to be carefully sited with consideration for its eventual size. Traditionally, the giant redwoods have been planted in the parklands of stately homes where they have room to grow. If you have a larger property, this is a magnificent specimen tree to appreciate from a distance, or experience its massive size up close. In the years until it reaches a commanding height, Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum’s distinctive silver-grey needles graceful columnar shape will create a lovely picture against a background of darker green evergreen species.By the time it reaches maturity, its spread will create a shaded space where a woodland garden of ferns could grow, just as in the native forests of the redwood. In a very large park setting, a group of Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum would be a stunning sight, and create a deeply shaded wood. Sequoiadendron Giganteum Glaucum is a specimen tree which, appropriately positioned, will become a long-lived and majestic part of the landscape. It is well worth investing in this giant of the tree world!
