European Hornbeam, Carpinus betulus, Tree Seeds (Fall Color, Bonsai, Topiary)

European Hornbeam, Carpinus betulus, Tree Seeds Hardy, Adaptable, Easy to Grow, Bonsai, Fall Color, Hedge Plant, Topiary, Allee, Cold, Drought and Wind Tolerant European Hornbeam is a long lived medium-sized, deciduous tree that grows 40 to 60 feet (less frequently to 80 feet) tall with a pyramidal to oval-rounded crown. Ovate, sharply-toothed, dark green leaves (to 5 inches long) are dark green and attractive throughout the growing season with little susceptibility to foliar diseases. Foliage turns yellow to orange in fall. Monoecious flowering catkins form in early spring before the foliage emerges. Male catkins (to 1.5 inches long) are yellowish and female catkins (to 3 inches long) are greenish. Fruit is a ribbed nutlet that is borne at the base of a leafy bract. Leafy bracts hang in clusters. Fruit matures in September through October. The fruits and buds are eaten by a variety of birds. Trunks have a handsome smooth gray bark and distinctive muscle-like fluting. European Hornbeam has been cultivated for many centuries. Trees are used extensively in England and continental Europe for hedges and allees. It is often described as the hardiest, heaviest and toughest of woods. The extremely hard wood of this tree will, as the common name suggests, take a horn-like polish and was once used in Europe to make yokes for oxen (the beam between the ox horns). The wood was used for wheel cogs, axils, spokes, wooden screws, tool handles, and butchers blocks. The wood is used for pianos and many of their working parts. Other Names: European Hornbeam, Ironwood, Common Hornbeam Zone: 4 to 8 Growth Rate: Slow to Moderate Plant Type: Deciduous Tree Family: Betulaceae Native Range: Europe, Turkey, Ukraine Height: 40 to 60 feet Spread: 30 to 40 feet Shape: Pyramidal when young becoming rounded with age.

Sun: Full Sun to Part Shade Fall Color: Yellow to orange Drought Tolerance: High Water: Medium Maintenance: Low Site Requirements/Soil Tolerances: Best in moist, well-drained soils. Tolerates light shade but prefers full sun. Relatively drought and wind tolerant and somewhat tolerant of environmental stresses. Culture: Needs little pruning when grown as a tree, but responds well to hard pruning if grown as a hedge or allee. Best pruned during the period of late summer to mid-winter to avoid significant bleeding. Uses: Excellent landscape tree, shade tree for lawns or street tree. Trees can be used as specimens, in groupings or as hedges. Popular Bonsai, Topiary and Allee. Sowing Carpinus betulus Seeds: For best results, please follow the instructions in the order provided.

The fragrant showy flowers are single, white to pink and over 1 inch wide, blooming in the spring before the leaves emerge. The fruit, which ripens end of July to mid-August, are about 1 inch in diameter, yellow with red flush, showy, edible and borne in abundance. The fruit provides food for wildlife during the fall.

Rowan, (European Mountain Ash), Sorbus aucuparia, Tree Seeds (Fast, Fall Color)

Rowan, (European Mountain Ash), Sorbus aucuparia, Tree Seeds Hardy, Easy to Grow, Fast Growth, Showy Flowers, Ornamental Fruit, Fall Color, Attracts Birds, Wildlife Food/Shelter, Shade Tree, Street Tree, Cold, Drought and Urban Tolerant, Bonsai Native to Europe and Asia, European Mountain Ash has been widely planted in northern North America as an ornamental and has naturalized in some parts of Canada and the northern U.S. It is primarily cultivated for its compound green leaves and attractive clusters of fall fruit. It is a fast growing large shrub or small tree that grows 20 to 40 feet tall with a narrow, upright-oval crown, usually rounding and opening with age. Compound, odd-pinnate, flat medium green leaves have 9 to 15 serrate, oblong-lanceolate leaflets (each leaflet to 2 1/2 inches long). Leaves turn yellow to reddish-purple in fall. Lovely, small, 1/3 inch, white, 5-petaled flowers bloom in flattened corymbs in May. Flowers give way to pendant clusters of orange-red berry-like drupes in late summer that are attractive to birds. The bark is smooth, silvery grey of young trees, becoming scaly pale grey-brown and occasionally fissured on old trees. Mountain Ashes have ash-like leaves, but are members of the Rose family, and are not related to true ashes (Fraxinus of the Olive family). Rowan Berries are great for adding a splash of color to a landscape and for attracting birds. The fruit is usually very bitter and inedible fresh, but are used to make jam or jelly with a distinctive bitter flavor. Rowan Jelly is a traditional accompaniment to game and venison. In the United Kingdom, where it is often known as the wiggen tree, the Mountain Ash has traditionally been used as an anti-witching device. Its alternate name “Rowan” comes from an old Scandinavian word meaning red. European Mountain Ash is planted for its ornamental qualities and as a source of food for birds. Leaf: Alternate, pinnately compound, 5 to 8 inches long, individual leaflets are serrated on their upper halves, 1 to 1 1/2 inches long, dull dark green above paler below. Leaves turn yellow to reddish-purple in fall. Flower: Showy clusters of small white flowers, clusters 3 to 5 inches across, appearing in late spring to early summer. Fruit: Clusters of bright deep orange-red, small (3/8 inch in diameter) pomes, very showy, ripening in fall, persistent. Twig: Moderate to stout, pubescent early, becoming shiny gray-brown later in season, spur shoot present, leaf scars narrow, buds 3/8 to 1/2 inch long, reddish brown with long gray pubescences. Bark: When young, smooth with numerous lenticels, grayish brown, developing cracks, splits and scaly patches with age. Form: A small tree or large shrub up to 40 feet tall, crown is initially elliptical but becoming wider with age. Zone: 3 to 7 Growth Rate: Fast Plant Type: Deciduous large shrub or small tree Family: Rosaceae Native Range: Europe and Asia Height: 20 to 40 feet Spread: 8 to 20 feet Shape: Upright oval crown, usually rounding and opening with age.

Sun: Full Sun Fall Color: Yellow to reddish-purple Water: Medium Maintenance: Medium Site Requirements/ Soil Tolerances: Best grown in moist, acidic, well-drained soils in full sun. As the common name suggests, this is a tree of cool mountain climates that dislikes hot and humid summers. Uses: Ideal specimen in a small garden. A beautiful shade tree. It is air pollution tolerant. Sowing Sorbus aucuparia Seeds: For best results, please follow the instructions in the order provided.
