Plant description
An elegant columnar rowan tree with dark green leaves, resembling fern fronds, that transform into a breathtaking display of oranges, yellows, and reds in autumn. In spring, delicate creamy-white flowers dangle from the branches, followed by vibrant pink berries that are a feast for the birds in autumn. This tree is an excellent choice for confined spaces or as a striking driveway tree, providing year-round visual interest. 'Glendoick Spire' thrives in sunny or partially shaded locations and tolerates windy conditions once established.

How to care for Sorbus Glendoick Spire:
Requires minimal pruning. Remove any broken, diseased or crossing branches in late autumn or winter. When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole and stake firmly.
Please note:
This tree is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
