Description

  • Arbutus unedo or strawberry tree is a small evergreen tree, notable for its bright red fruits and its clusters of pendulous white flowers shaped like urns
  • Glossy bay like leaves and tactile peeling bark complete this stunning all-rounder with its multiple points of interest
  • Slow growing and reaching 5 x 4m, this tree is perfect for small gardens
  • RHS Award of Garden Merit
  • 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
