Urban tree pack
You don’t have to live in the countryside to plant trees. Trees in urban areas deliver a wide range of benefits. They provide much-needed space for wildlife, absorb pollution and boost health and wellbeing for generations.
This pack of 15 trees is subsidised by the Woodland Trust and our partners*. It is the ideal size for helping you to create more green spaces in an urban area, whether it’s in your garden or to share with neighbours and the wider community.
Tree packs come in regional varieties. We would recommend you select the variety closest to the location of your planting site:
- England: 5 Field Maple, 5 Hazel, 5 Crab Apple.
- Upland UK: 5 Silver Birch, 5 Hazel, 5 Rowan.
- Scotland: 5 Silver Birch, 5 Hazel, 5 Rowan.
- Wales & West of England: 5 Silver Birch, 5 Crab Apple, 5 Rowan.
Tree protection options:
You can choose whether you want to purchase tree protection alongside your saplings or not. Please consider whether your saplings need protection, particularly from browsing mammals.
- No tree protection – your order will contain saplings, but no tree protection. We would suggest this option if your saplings are unlikely to be affected by browsing mammals of any size, or if you have plans for alternative tree protection e.g., browsing reduction, fencing.
- Easywraps and canes – your order will contain saplings as well as easywraps and canes. This option will help to provide protection from small mammals e.g. voles.
- Tubes and stakes - your order will contain saplings as well as tubes and stakes. This option will help to provide protection from small and large browsing mammals.
Estimated full-grown height:
Silver birch: 25m, Crab Apple: 10m, Field maple: 20m, Hazel: 8m, Rowan: 15m.
Purchase size and growth:
These trees are cell-grown saplings, ranging from approximately 20-50cm in height. Cell grown trees can be planted all year round in most situations as long as they are given the correct care. Please be aware that depending upon the time of year you receive your sapling (particularly early spring) it may not look very perky upon arrival, please do not worry once it has been planted it should pick up quickly.
UK and Ireland Sourced and Grown (UKISG):
Every sapling that we provide is UK and Ireland sourced and grown to minimise the risk of importing and spreading tree pests and diseases. Seeds are collected and stored in the UK and Ireland, and they are all coded and batched so that we can track each individual tree.
More information about the trees in these packs can be found here.
A variant of this pack is also available in our Free Trees for schools and community groups. To find out more, visit our Free Trees page.
