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.

Malus Domestica Santana Apple Santana Low Allergen Apple Tree

Malus Domestica Santana Apple Santana Low Allergen Apple Tree

 Malus Domestica Santana or Apple SantanaMalus domestica Santana is also referred to as Apple Santana. It was created in 1978 in the Netherlands at the University of Wageningen. The goal of creating the tree was to develop a fruit that featured low levels of specific proteins that are known to cause apple allergies in certain individuals. Apple Santana is exceptionally hardy and boasts a low susceptibility to diseases. It has what is known as a Vf gene that provides the tree with resistance to scab. The tree also features some resistance to canker.During the spring months, Malus domestica Santana produces pretty pink blossoms that fade to white as the season progresses. After flowering, the tree starts to develop a bountiful crop of apples. Each apple is red-flushed over a greenish yellow background. The apples that are exposed to excessive sunlight tend to develop a greater red colouration. Normally, the fruit is ready to be picked mid-October. After harvest, the fruit can usually be stored for one to two months. The apples can be eaten fresh or used in cooking.The flavour of the Apple Santana fruit is pure apple sweetness. The flesh is creamy yellow, crisp, and juicy. The fruit is exceptionally fragrant. It is an excellent dessert apple. The apples have the unique characteristic of being able to be eaten by individuals who are typically sensitive to apples. Approximately 75 percent of people who suffer from apple sensitivity can consume the fruit of the Malus domestica Santana without suffering any adverse reactions.Plant Apple Santana in a location with full sun for the best growth. The tree will thrive in any well-draining soil. At planting time, it is advised that you mix ample organic material into the soil to help the tree establish its root system. Keep the soil evenly moist but not overly wet. In the late winter months, the tree benefits from pruning.Malus domestica Santana is a mid-sized tree which makes it ideal for any backyard orchard. It has an upright, spreading habit. Unlike most apple trees, the Apple Santana is self-fertile. However, it benefits from being planted close to a pollinator and will tend to produce a more abundant crop. See also Malus Domestica Elise, another variety of low-allergen apple tree.

Malus Domestica Benoni Apple Benoni Early Dessert Apple Tree

Malus Domestica Benoni Apple Benoni Early Dessert Apple Tree

Malus Domestica Benoni or Apple BenoniMalus Domestica Benoni is a medium-sized early-fruiting dessert apple tree which is very suitable for smaller gardens. Self-fertile and hardy, this lovely fruit tree will fit into a variety of locations! Introduced in Massachusetts USA in 1832, this heritage apple variety is a good choice when you only have room for one apple tree, as it is self-fertile. The fragrant, white blossoms in mid-spring will attract bees to your garden as they do the necessary work of pollinating. The fruits develop early, being ready to pick by August and into September. The round, medium-sized apples do not all ripen at once, allowing for an extended period of harvest for fresh eating. The skins of ripe Malus Domestica Benoni apples are yellowish with a red blush, and the crisp, sweet flesh has a slight acid tang. They are best eaten fresh and will only store for a week. They are not suitable for processing.Hardy in most parts of the UK, deciduous Malus Domestica Benoni can grow to a mature height of 5-8 metres in 5 to 10 years. As with all apple trees, they need to be pruned in late winter before blooming, or in early July after fruit set. Thin the fruits soon after they first develop to obtain larger apples. While Apple Benoni is reliably self-fertile, you will get a bigger yield with another tree from pollination group B nearby. This variety tends to alternate between larger and smaller harvests from one year to the next.Plant Malus Domestica Benoni in full sun or partial shade in a sheltered position in moist but well-drained sand, loam or clay soil with a neutral pH. You can prune this apple tree to keep it to a suitable size for a smaller garden, where it will provide summer shade in addition to its spring blossoms and autumn fruit. It is also suited to training as an espalier, cordon or fan against a wall or fence, making it a perfect living privacy screen for a rooftop terrace, balcony, courtyard or patio. Malus Domestica Benoni is also a good choice for an informal country garden where it has room to grow to full size. As part of a small mixed orchard this fruit tree will benefit from proximity to pollinating partners, as well as providing an early to mid-season ripening apple.

Alnus Spaethii Spaeth’s Alder Mature Alnus Spaethii Trees UK

Alnus Spaethii Spaeth’s Alder Mature Alnus Spaethii Trees UK

Alnus Spaethii, also called the Spaeth’s Alder is an alder hybrid cross between Japanese alder (Alnus japonica) and the Caucasian alder (Alnus subcordata). This is a fast-growing small deciduous tree and usually attains a height of 10 to 15 meters. The stem of the tree is exceptionally straight and the overall growth habit is narrow. When young, Spaeth’s Alder branches grow straight upward but as it matures, the branches bend to a horizontal angle. This makes the tree an ideal street tree or specimen tree for any landscape that requires a slender columnar tree.Spaeth’s Alder more resembles a cherry tree in appearance than an alder. Often as early as January, Alnus Spaethii starts to develop dangling yellow catkins. Each catkin measures approximately 10 centimetres in length and is a valuable early season food source for hungry bees. The catkins usually persist on the tree into March before they give way to large, ovate leaves that are purplish when young. Upon maturity, the leaves develop into a dark green hue. The underside is a matte green and the topside a glossy green. Each serrated leaf measures 15 centimetres. In the autumn months, the foliage turns a dark orange or red before falling from the tree.A hardy tree, Alnus Spaethii thrives in all soil types. As with many alder trees, the root system has the unique ability to fix nitrogen into the surrounding soil which allows the tree to grow in nutrient-poor locations. It can even thrive in sandy soil where many plants and trees fail.Best growth is attained in moist soil, but once mature the tree can withstand short periods of drought. Its affinity for wet soil makes it ideal to plant in flood-prone locations. The tree is salt tolerant and can to tolerate windy conditions which makes it a good choice for coastal regions. Plant Spaeth’s Alder in a sunny or partially sunny location for optimum growth and flower development.Spaeth’s Alder was first discovered by the botanist Ludwig Späth in the Späth Arboretum at the Späth Baumschule (Arboretum) in Berlin. It rapidly became a valuable landscape tree across most of Europe and it makes a beautiful avenue or street tree. Although it is still rare in the United States, it is gaining some popularity as more gardeners discover its landscape benefits.
