The buds awaken from winter dormancy in mid April – late May and leaf fall occurs in early October. Please note if purchasing these trees between Nov-May that they may not have come into leaf yet.

Please note: Trees purchased between the months of Oct – Apr may be losing or have already dropped their leaves due to the fact they are deciduous. Many of the trees we sell are single stemmed and therefore may look a little bare during these months. Once spring arrive the foliage will return and new growth will appear.

Please bear in mind the plant is posted out via Royal Mail and may not look its’ best when initially unpacked. To help it along, place the roots in water for up to 30 mins as soon as it has been unpacked before planting out / potting on.
