Aspen is also the subject of a conservation effort across the Scottish Highlands, where its survival is threatened, reproduction is by both suckering and seed but despite being a pioneer species, populations are small and isolated. A is a fast growing, small tree with a maximum height of 65ft (20m).
Please note: all our trees are 20 – 40cm in height, depending on the time of year they may arrive bare or with browning leaves. This is completely normal and they will perk back up in the warmer weather. Our cell grown saplings can be planted all year round if given the right care and attention. -
