Scots Pine – Pinus sylvestris (Potted)

This tree has been used for hundreds of years to plant up hills and in none agricultural productive areas across Britain. The timber has a great number of uses, it is now highly sought after for the modern biomass heating systems that heat domestic houses.

Planted a few meters apart it makes a very good screen and shelter belt. I have used this tree to form divisions between the fairways on our par 3 golf course. It is amazing to see how many animal species use it to sustain their lives. I would recommend one or two of these trees in any medium to large sized garden. Plant in any soil type, including rocky soil and avoid wet areas.
