Monkey Puzzle Tree advice needed
Monkey Puzzle trees grow quite quickly but need very large gardens and
should be planted when less than 12" high. Expect to pay through the nose! Our garden centre has one at about 14" in a container at £88!! They can be grown from seeds, or cuttings from vertical growths~~for your grandchildren. I have a dozen at about 70' high and nothing could look more ugly! Planted 1832 and long ago lost any attractiveness. Branches are now just a mophead with all lower growth long gone. Seedlings have appeared over the years but were not noticed till too late to transplant. "JennyC" wrote in message ... "tom@claire" wrote in message s.com... Hello we are looking to purchase a monkey puzzle tree and do not want to wait years and years to enjoy it. Is it best to start with a 1.5m tree or smaller? How much does it grow per year on average? We appreciate any help/ advice you can offer! Thanks Claire & Tom They seem to be slooooooow growers: http://www.stratsplace.com/gardendia...zzle_tree.html Jenny :~) |
