"Paul" wrote in message news Hi I am starting a garden in a new build house, the main part of the garden measures approx 11M deep X 17M long. This garden is in a windy seaside location, I have currently laid the whole garden to lawn with the intention of "carving it up" with some sort of design next spring. Since the garden is flat and bounded by brick walls and fences I would like to use plants to soften the these hard edges and give the garden some height. As a start I would like to plant some standard trees this autumn, (my wife likes apples). Any suggestions as to what types of apple tree would be suitable for my garden, what size should I buy and when should I plant my tree(s). TIA Paul Tamarisk likes the seaside: it also likes sandy soils. It is more of a shrub than a tree, but it gets woody stems and grows to, maybe 10 feet? It flowers and has feathery leaves, a pleasant addition to a seaside garden, except perhaps on clay. Pittosporum Tenufolium is an evergreen that likes a maritime climate. Andy |
