I am looking for a small tree (up to 20ft) to plant about 10 ft
away from my conservatory.

Obviously I would like it to be fast-growing because I am impatient.

Ideally I would like something native. Any suggestions?


Rowan? Might get a little taller than 20ft though.


Bits snap of those in winds and would fly into the greenhouse panes. ;-(


Funny old rowans you've got Sacha! We've a monster rowan growing over
our garden, from next-door, which must be all of 35 years old, and I've
never seen any bits snap off it yet. We get some strong wind here, too,
blowing up the Tay valley, and down from the Cairngorms in the north.

Then you're very lucky. Let's hope you remain that way.
