Picea Omorika Serbian Spruce Bosnian Spruce for Sale Online

 Picea omorika, Serbian Spruce or Bosnian SpruceThe Picea Omorika, also called the Serbian Spruce or the Bosnian Spruce, is a graceful evergreen conifer that can grow to a height up to 40 metres. That said, it grows at a relatively slow rate of just 30 to 60 centimeters per year. The hardy Bosnian Spruce is native to the Tara Mountains which are located in West Serbia. In its native habitat, it grows mostly on the mountain's north facing slopes signifying its hardiness. Picea Omorika was first discovered in 1875 and quickly gained popularity in horticulture use. From the 1880s onward, the Serbian Spruce has been a valued landscape addition. In terms of growth habit, it has an attractive crown which is narrowly conical to columnar with short branches with a downward curve.The Serbian Spruce is an evergreen conifer and keeps its needles all year round. It grows naturally in a narrow, pyramid fashion and rarely, if ever, requires any pruning. The needles measure 2.5 centimeters in length. Each needle is flat and bright green. The underside of the needle has two distinctive white stripes. The needles are connected to the main stem by a tiny pulvinus. The Bosnian Spruce produces male and female flowers on the same tree. The flowers are inconspicuous. After flowering, it develops long ovate-shaped cones that measure approximately 5 centimeters. The decorative cones appear a purple and change to a reddish-brown as they mature.Plant the Picea omorika in full sun for best growth. It will tolerate partial shade but must have at least four hours of sun per day. The tree grows well in, loamy, sandy, or clay soils. Ideally, it prefers acidic soil conditions. Avoid planting the tree in overly moist or boggy soil. It grows best when the soil is allowed to dry out between waterings. Despite its mountain origins, the Serbian Spruce tolerates urban pollution. However, it does not do well when exposed to road salt.Picea omarika is a popular living Christmas tree choice. Many people keep the tree in a pot and after the holidays, they plant it directly in the garden where it makes an ideal specimen tree. It was awarded the prestigious Award of Garden Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society. Many successful cultivars such as the Picea omorika Nana have been produced from the Picea omorika.

Prunus Spinosa Blackthorn Tree Sloe Tree - for Sale Online

Prunus Spinosa or the Blackthorn Tree is a native tree which has long been found in the hedgerows of the UK. Also called the Sloe for the fruits it produces in autumn, it is a tough, hardy native which will thrive just about anywhere. Found in the UK and across Europe, the blackthorn is one of the first trees to flower each spring. The pretty white flowers provide an important nectar source for pollinating insects such as bees and moths. The leaves which then emerge are dark green, ovate, and finely serrated. The flowers are followed by in autumn by sloes, which are not eaten as fresh fruit, but are excellent for making sloe gin or jam. Its dense branching habit and thorny spikes create excellent nesting sites for birds. Prunus Spinosa is incredibly hardy and will survive even the most severe winters in the UK and across northern Europe. Over a period of 20 to 50 years it will reach a height and spread of 2.5-4 metres. It is not necessary to prune blackthorn to maintain its vigorous growth. For hedging, space Prunus Spinosa plants at 3 per metre, or 5 per metre in a staggered double row.Blackthorn will tolerate a wide variety of growing conditions. It will do best in moist but well-drained soil of any type. It will not thrive in acidic soil, and while it will grow in part shade, it will flower best and set more fruit in full sun. It does not need a sheltered location, and since it will tolerate salt Prunus Spinosa is a good choice for coastal plantings. Prunus Spinosa is best suited to rural properties where its low-maintenance natural state will complement the country landscape. It is a traditional hedgerow plant, where it grows wild, and so is a natural choice for a rural hedge, where it will provide early-season nectar for pollinating insects, attract birds for nesting and food, and year-round screening because of its dense growth habit and eventual height.  Blackthorn can protect more vulnerable plants from being eaten by wildlife or grazing animals until they have grown enough to be safe. This can be a boon in areas where deer or rabbits pose a threat to your valuable plantings in a wildlife or woodland garden. Planting Prunus Spinosa is a great way to nurture wildlife while at the same time providing a dense and reliable screen for your property. This extra-hardy native tree makes a welcome addition to a country landscape plan!

Picea Pungens Fat Albert. Colorado Blue Spruce Fat Albert

A natural hybrid, Picea Pungens Fat Albert, commonly known as Colorado Blue Spruce and Fat Albert Spruce, is an evergreen conifer tree with spectacular silvery-blue needles. Its distinctive pyramid shape, as well as its true blue colour, make this ornamental spruce perfect as a focus plant or as a part of an evergreen screen.The lush, matte foliage of this compact conifer provides multiple seasons of interest. The needles are icy blue, tightly spread along ascending, closely-spaced branches. Unlike other blue spruces, which are commonly grown from seedlings, Fat Albert spruces are grafted and don’t vary in size, shape or colour. The unmistakable steel blue colour of this conifer remains unchanged for years to come. The young cones emerge green, maturing to light brown shades. Native to the Rocky Mountains, Picea Pungens spruces are sturdy and resistant and this specific variety is no exception. Discovered in Oregon, by Iseli Nursery, Fat Albert Spruce can easily survive in a wide range of climates, including the UK climate. Fully hardy throughout Britain and Ireland, this evergreen shrub feels at home even in the severest European climates.Resilient and easy to care for, Fat Albert Spruce is not finicky when it comes to the growing conditions, either. It will thrive in most types of soils, but it prefers moist, fertile soil with good drainage, and full sun to light shade. Highly resistant to pests and diseases, this showy spruce’s only sensitivity is overly wet soil.Long-lived and rugged, Fat Albert Spruce is virtually maintenance-free. Its compact habit requires no pruning, but if you decide to do a little trimming to rejuvenate the plant, remove the new growth of the season only. The perfect cone shape of this spruce comes naturally and requires no staking or training to achieve its form. Generally slow-growing, with a growth rate around 30 centimetres per year, this evergreen conifer can grow to be 3 to 5 metres tall and 3 to 3 metres wide. Thankfully, you won’t have to wait too long to enjoy the extraordinary form of this plant, since our specimens are mature and already standing 2.5 to 3 metres tall.Ideal for the spotlight, Fat Albert Spruce is commonly used as a statement tree. The natural form of a pyramid and showy, year-round foliage make this conifer great choice for a patio or a front yard, where it can enjoy the attention it deserves. Suitable for mass planting, it makes a spectacular hedge, its dense and bluish-gray foliage serving as a windbreak and providing privacy throughout the whole year. The interesting colour of the foliage and the compact habit also make Fat Albert Spruce a popular choice for a Living Christmas tree.
