This year we are celebrating 25 years of Chew Valley Trees. The same year that the M25 opened and the popular medical drama Casualty was ﬁ rst screened, David and I bought a 10 acre ﬁ eld full of docks. Accompanied by our 5 year old daughter, Elinor and 3 year old son Simon, many back breaking hours were spent clearing, sowing and planting. Being a family business it is only right to mention our youngest daughter Jane who was born when the nursery was 4 years old.

Our ﬁ rst plant list was a single photocopied sheet comprising native broadleaved seedlings and transplants. Over the last 25 years the size and range of trees we produce has grown to this 62 page catalogue. Our guiding principle has always been customer satisfaction both in the quality and suitability of our plant stock and level of service and advice we offer. The commitment, energy and enthusiasm of our wonderful staff both past and present has been the key to our continued success.

Much has changed in 25 years, networked computers have taken over from word processors, and our 3 year old son is now 28 and shares the responsibility of running the business. What remains constant is our focus on supplying the best plants for your requirements.

BROADLEAVED TREES Price per plant £ Container trees and shrubs are available to be viewed and purchased all year round and don’t usually need pre-ordering. Bare root trees are available when dormant (usually November to March).

If the tree you are looking for is not amongst the 200 or so listed please ask, we may have it, be able to source it for you or have suggestions for similar alternatives. All Broadleaved Trees the trees listed will need to be correctly staked and tied to anchor the roots in the ground. Ask for a free planting guide or download one from our website.

What size to choose Once trees are bigger than about 6-8 ft they are measured on the circumference of the girth 3ft above the ground. The overall height in feet generally equates to the girth size in centimetres (see the table below). Although the largest size we list is 10-12 cm girth we do have larger specimens of many trees. Generally each increase in girth size represents a year’s growth. A consideration for trees 12-14 cm girth and above can be access to the planting site: they can be heavy and difﬁ cult to move without mechanical help. If you are planting them yourself and have minimal experience of tree planting 8-10 cm girth is the largest we would recommend. We can easily ﬁ t 6-8 cm girth and 15 L trees into most cars and often 8-10 cm and 30L ones too.

The following chart gives an indicative size for most deciduous trees. There are exceptions such as evergreens and weeping trees. Please call us if you need to know the exact speciﬁ cation of a particular tree. See page 46 for a comparison of 70, 30 and 15L container tree sizes.

AFTER CARE GUIDE For the continued healthy growth of your trees, shrubs or hedging it is vital that you follow the advice below.

Watering The main reason that plants die within 12 months of having been planted is lack of water. It is essential throughout the spring and summer, to give a heavy enough watering to enable the water to penetrate right down to the deepest root level of the tree. In hot dry spells give the equivalent of 2 bucketfuls every three days.

Weed Control One of the most common causes of lack of water is competition from grass. When trees are ﬁ rst establishing, the grass roots would be at the same level as the tree roots and are far more efﬁ cient at taking up water and thus choke the tree. It is vital for 3 years after planting that your tree or hedge has a circle or strip 1 metre wide completely free of grass. The way to eliminate grass in order of effectiveness is

1. Spray off the grass with a glyphosate based weed killer such as Roundup. Apply each year for the ﬁ rst 3 years. It is best applied when the tree is dormant as it is absorbed through green leaves and kills the plant off at the roots. 2. Firmly ﬁ t a mulch mat around the base of the tree by tucking the edges into the soil and put a thick layer of bark mulch on top of this. This can be done after the initial spraying with glyphosate and should avoid the need for further spraying.

Mowing or strimming is NOT an answer to the problem. Each time you mow, the grass will grow back more vigourously and strimming invariably leads to lacerated trunks.

Staking If trees are not correctly secured they will rock in the planting pit. Roots not fi rmly in contact with the soil are unable to take up moisture and nutrients, resulting in die back or death of the tree. Check, particularly after windy weather, that stakes are still solidly in the ground keeping the base of the trunk fi rm. The purpose of the stakes is to anchor the roots. Flexing in the wind, higher up the trunk, is not necessarily a problem if the roots are fi rm.

Ties Always use our recommended tree ties or strapping. These are designed and manufactured with the correct amount of give to hold the tree ﬁ rm without strangling it. They should be checked at the end of each growing season for adjustment as the trunk thickens. Non proprietary materials such as baler twine will cut into the bark and should not be used.

Protection from Animal Damage Rabbits, deer, sheep, cattle and horses can all potentially damage trees. Ask us for advice on the most appropriate guards for your trees or hedge. Squirrels are also a terrible pest when trees get to about 20ft tall but there is no protection available. 25 Years Ago
