Acer campestre Elsrijk
Field Maple Tree
Common Name: Field Maple TreeLatin Name: Acer campestre 'Elsrijk'Soil: Fertile, moist, well-drainedPosition: Partial shadeHardiness: Very hardyEventual height/spread: 7m x 6mSpecial features: Star-shaped green leaves that turn orange-red in summer (Deciduous) Acer 'Elsrijk' is an upright tree which grows to have a conical to broadly ovate crown. The leaves are of the typical Acer shape, and shoot through pale green with deep red margins; the leaves mature to a healthy mid-green colour by late spring. Like most Acer trees, this tree is at its best in autumn when the leaves turn to glowing shades of yellow and orange before falling. This is an excellent choice for a landscape tree as its attractive shape will add structure to the back of a border.
Betula albosinensis Fascination
Chinese Red
Common Name: Chinese red-barked birchLatin Name: Betula albosinensis FascinationSoil: Any free-draining garden soilPosition: Full sun or partial shadeFlowering period/colour: March/Yellow-brown male catkinsHardiness: Fully hardyEventual height and spread: 13m/8mSpecial features: Orange-red peeling bark The 'Fascination' is a stunning ornamental tree which offers year-round interest. Its most notable feature is its orange-red peeling bark which has a shimmering copper tone to it: the iridescent-looking bark really stands out in a winter garden. Once the tree reaches maturity the bark mellows to a pink-white colour, but it still retains its glossy appearance. Spring brings fresh foliage and the cordate leaves are dark-green in colour and serrated at their edges. In March exceptionally lengthy yellow-brown catkins emerge and these dangle from the branches, which adds further interest. The winter leaves turn buttery-yellow before falling in autumn. This tree has densely ascending branches and it will grow to have a pyramidal habit, making this a great choice for a screening tree. Plant it alongside something just as sturdy and colourful, like the Koelreuteria paniculata, or something with contrasting bark, like the Betula Snow Queen.
