Golden Alder (Alnus)
£180.00*
These trees are currently not available but can be pre-ordered now for delivery in September 2009.
Young shoots and leaves are golden yellow in spring with the leaves hardening to a yellow / green in summer before turning a glorious yellow again before they fall in autumn. Red catkins are freely produced by September and don't fully open to yellow until the following spring making it one of the showiest of garden trees. It does best in moist soils and semi shaded areas. An absolute beauty!
