Parrotia 'Persian Spire' | 3L Pot

Colourful tree that's perfect for pots

The Highlights

    • A small and slender tree perfect for growing in pots
    • Reaches a size of only 3 x 1m, making it ideal for smaller gardens
    • Foliage starts off purple, then develops a vibrant green centre before changing to fiery reds and oranges in autumn
    • Renowned for its autumn display, this compact tree provides year-round interest
    • Flowers from late winter to early spring
    • Adds vertical interest to any display - this tree looks fabulous in pots by the front door!
    • Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming "leggy", and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE

Water regularly

Water young trees regularly until roots are well established. Trees grown in pots will need more regular waterign throughout their lives.

Full sun to partial shade

Position where the tree will receive at least 4-6 hours of sunlight every day during summer and spring. This variety can handle partial shade where it receives its light as dappled shade.

Moist, well-drained soil

This tree will flourish in any moderately fertile, moist and well drained soil.

Feed when first planted

After planting your tree add some fertiliser and cover with mulch to ensure all the water and nutrients get to the roots. Over time, replace the mulch and feed the tree with slow release fertiliser annually to help the plant maintain its growth and create a beautiful display of blossom. ?v=1613300718
