WELCOME
s many would perhaps know Kingsdown is a family run Aestablishment and works on the principle of helping people to achieve their own goals of value and service to others. And once again, the team here are delighted to welcome you to our flagship brochure - the Seasonbook.
As we’re on the subject of ships, here’s something from the archives. Way back in the 1800’s our great, great grandfather was a captain in the Merchant Navy. William ran his vessel and small fleet back and forth across the British empire trading various merchandise from far flung corners of the globe. An interesting and probably dangerous way to earn a living!
So, we don’t sail ships anymore or have quite such a dashing vocation but we do enjoy trading plants from all over Europe with many of England’s finest Garden Designers, Landscape Architects, The National Trust and various Government bodies.
If you are an old customer of ours; thank you and welcome back! If you have never used us before; welcome on board and we look forward to working with you soon.
With Warm Regards,
The Kingsdown Crew

GARDEN DESIGNERS
Kingsdown has a lot to offer the professional designer who enjoys working with a wide palette of plants and trees. The Seasonbook is produced every November and is primarily centred around the needs of garden designers and landscapers.
Aside from the Seasonbook we offer a huge range of specimen Italian plants, shrubs, perennials and bulbs. We’re also very approachable sort of people and have a genuine care for the Landscaper or Designers needs and a deep understanding of how critical quality is when it comes to building or renovating a garden. Nearly all of our team have been in horticulture throughout their career as nurserymen, landscapers or garden designers, so we offer sound practical advice and guidance based on experience.
Garden Designers often ask us to find them an approved contractor to help build their gardens. We are more than happy to help in this connection and many new and effective working relationships have been formed in this way. 11
BUILDERS & PROPERTY DEVELOPERS
More property developers now consider carrying out their own soft landscaping works but we’ve learnt from those we work with that sourcing the trees and plants can sometimes feel very confusing. It is not normally the developers main line of knowledge, it is almost certainly subsidiary to the main project in hand and there may appear to be an endless mass of varieties and specifications. With our friendly and professional guidance, we will take the developer through the necessary steps and help turn what may have been a headache in to a simple and profitable addition to the enterprise.
Development projects we work on are normally in the high-end domestic sector ranging from Cotswold Cottages to Surrey mansions worth £30M or more. We are very happy to make site visits and these are often critical for us to get an accurate appraisal of what we need to quote for.
If necessary we are happy to put developers in touch with Kingsdown Approved Landscape Contractors. Along with this we can also bring Approved Garden Designers to the table who will offer the full package from concept and project management through to completion. Alternatively, the Garden Designer can simply produce the landscape design and leave the project management and plant sourcing to the developer. GENERAL PUBLIC
Kingsdown Nurseries are strictly wholesale only and do not sell directly to the general public. However, we often get enquiries from non-trades people wanting to buy from us, and although prices or details are never discussed we do refer them to approved designers or landscapers who we feel reflect our company values. To this end we have a scheme called ‘Connect Pro’ where we take down project details and connect the applicant up with appropriate and approved designers or landscape contractors. ‘Connect Pro’ is an online system – please visit kingsdown-uk.com and search Connect Pro for more details.
_ OUR CUSTOMERS _ ESTATES & THE NATIONAL TRUST
As an approved National Trust supplier we know that there are high expectations to meet in quality, reliability and trust. Along with National Trust properties some of the most prestigious private estates in the country come to us for their feature plants, trees, hedging and landscaping sundries needed to complete the highest quality projects. Our Estate customers range from royalty and peers to comedians and world-famous musicians.
Our staff have a wealth of landscaping and project management experience which we are delighted to share in a helpful and approachable way. We put customers at ease with a site visit to discuss their project and answer any queries if required. We are also very willing to put Estate owners or managers in touch with Kingsdown approved Landscape Contractors or Garden Designers to ensure the project has the best possible chance of complete success.
Unless marked with (P) every plant in this book is peat free.

FARMERS
Kingsdown are proud to have supplied British grown plants to Farmers nationwide for nearly 25 years. They benefit from our trade prices and large quantity discounts on a wide range of trees, forestry and hedging plants. Our expert staff offer friendly, specialist assistance on planting and maintenance and can also provide information on the latest Government subsidies currently available. Native Country Hedge Mix (see page 58) is the Farmers most common choice from the Kingsdown range. This mix is sold by the meter and makes for a cost effective and very attractive boundary hedge, providing food for a wide range of wildlife and in time becomes a dense, stock-proof barrier.
The full range of deer and rabbit protection is also available, along with bulk discounts on Mychoryzal fungi (a ‘friendly fungus’) that increases survival rates and future growth dramatically. 15
SCHOOLS & COLLEGES
England’s oldest universities and some of our most respected private schools are long standing Kingsdown customers. We are used to working with resident gardeners/landscaping teams in conjunction with the bursars to ensure projects happen on time and in budget. If planting needs to take place during the summer recess, we are able to supply container grown trees and hedging to ensure that these projects proceed, despite being ‘out of season.’
LOCAL AUTHORITIES & COUNCILS
Kingsdown works with many Local Authorities in the South and South West on various projects from new build developments and kerbside planting to supplying hand tools for landscaping and maintenance teams. Locally, we have worked cost-effectively and efficiently with Councils by becoming a depot for planting teams to call- off and collect stock as they progress through a planting scheme, keeping Above plants and sundries supplied to local Council development project plant handling to a minimum and with no need for space to be found for bulk deliveries on site.

PORTFOLIO
ost goods we sell come under the category of plants Mbut they can vary enormously and the vast array of varieties and forms is quite astonishing. We have monstrous trees and topiary coming through as well as minions from all across the continent and they all need handling and caring for in different ways.
The next few pages are an attempt to show some of the specimens during the distribution process or in projects that we have supplied. The portfolio can’t do full justice to all the amazing plants that pass through our hands but we trust this section is informative and perhaps inspirational for designs or projects you are currently working on.
We enjoy a personal approach to our customers and would encourage you to call or email your requirements through to one of our helpful sales team. We are quite used to the most bizarre and unusual of requests so please be assured of our full support for your project. Be assured of our full support for you project, whatever it may entail. 20
A wedding venue in Nottinghamshire
After receiving the initial brief and sketches from the designer our sales team set to work and sourced these magnificent Prunus Lusitanica ‘mushrooms’. To help our customer visualise the plants in situ we even provided a sketch of the plants as they would look in the planters. Along with these centre pieces we delivered the Box ‘cloud hedge,’ Taxus hedging, Pleached Trees and an avenue of Quercus Robur Fastigiata. 21
23 From Solar Farms to Kensington
In recent years we have worked closely with Solar Farm construction companies and their contractors across the UK providing them with mitigation planting requirements from mature trees, bareroot hedging and sundries.
The project we supplied below was in Wroughton, Wiltshire and at the time of building was Britain’s largest solar farm at 200 acres and 160’000 panels.
Instant hedging, trees and topiary from Kingsdown supplied to Kensington Green, London.

TOPIARY
opiary has been used in the gardens of Europe since TRoman times. It survived a popularity decline in the 1700’s and experienced a dramatic revival in the mid 19th century, from which it has not abated. In fact, Topiary today is more popular than ever and found in a huge number of British gardens from the smallest spheres to stately works of art that are often decades in the making.
At Kingsdown we have had the pleasure of being involved in supplying topiary to many fascinating projects and in the following pages you will get a glimpse of what is available to stir your imagination.
Along with mature hedging, large unusual topiary and feature plants are really what we are best at. We source these shapes from specialist growers all over Europe and availability and quality is checked before we quote for each item. There are rarely two enquiries alike for such diverse plants so each query is assessed and quoted for on an individual basis.

INSTANT HEDGING
hese perfectly finished hedging units are proving Textremely useful and are in more demand than ever before. The plants are always very strong and healthy with an excellent root system which is undercut regularly ensuring virtually zero loss if planted, maintained and irrigated properly. These units are all 100cm long by 40cm wide and come in a selection of heights.
e also offer another form of instant hedging and Wthese are field grown rootballed plants available from late October through to April. These plants are clipped, square sided columns and can be up to 100cm wide and 400cm tall or more depending on your specification. Planted abut one another they form a hedge that could have been growing there for 30 years! These are truly your best option should you be wanting ‘instant age’. Of course, these superb plants also make stunning features in their own right planted as single specimens, groups or lining a drive.
42
Installation & Dimensions
The units are very easy to install and come in biodegradable cardboard containers. There is no need to take the plants out of the containers, simply drop them straight into the trench and back-fill as normal. If you are planting in spring or summer it would be advisable to run a simple irrigation system along the hedge line. Every order comes with free irrigation pipe.
• The working length per unit is 100cm - remember when ordering. • Dig trench to a minimum of 35cm wide and 35cm deep. • Ensure the top of the biodegradable cardboard box is just below the soil level.

Installation of Hedging Units (climbing plants with frame)
When installing climbing plants we recommend one support stake or pole every three units with a straining wire running just below the top of the frame. Normal hedging units (i.e. Fagus) would not need to be supported in this way.

ROOTBALLED HEDGING
ootballed Hedging plants are grown in the field and are in Reffect ‘crops’ that are harvested to order. And like other ‘crops’ there is a window of opportunity for harvest and planting. After being carefully tended, clipped and fertilized throughout the summer, lifting normally begins in late October and continues through to April. Conifer types, however are often available earlier (September) and are usually still being lifted in May depending on how cool the weather stays. The longer it stays cool the longer the season lasts.
Rootballed hedging will have developed more slowly than container gown options resulting in stronger, fuller plants ideal for mature looking hedges or single specimens.
Taxus baccata is our best-selling item from this range, thousands gracing the gardens of stately homes up and down the country as well as high end business parks and commercial properties.
Rootballs are normally constructed in two different ways. With smaller sized plants the rootballs are simply wrapped in hessian. Larger plants have their rootballs wrapped in hessian and are then encased in wire mesh, tensioned up to form a firm rootball that is more resilient to knocks and movement. This also makes the plants much easier to handle as hooks can be used to move them or lift them into place. While wire rootballs are so practical they do of course cost more to produce and if you are comparing quotes that show a significant difference in price for what appears to be the same sized plants - it is well worth checking with your supplier what rootballed type they are quoting for. Hessian and wire should never be taken off the rootballs before planting as you will risk damaging the roots. The wire is not galvanized and will rust away quite soon leaving the roots free to grow as they please.
In the following pages our wire-rootballed plants are indicated with ‘WRB’ in the margin. Taxus supplied by Kingsdown

Our most popular item in this range is Kingsdown’s own ‘Native Country Hedge Mix’. This is comprised of an attractive mixture of native shrubs which will produce a stock proof hedge full of colour as well as food for wildlife. The mixture complies with government grant schemes and is a great favourite with Farmers, Estates and Habitat Specialists.
Most hedges or forestry plantations will need rabbit or deer protection – see page 110 58
NATIVE COUNTRY HEDGE MIX
The following rural hedge mix will make a dense hedge of mainly thorn, with other species added to provide interest and a good natural habitat for wildlife.
These should be planted in clean ground in a double row, with plants staggering those in the adjacent row. The rows should be 30cm apart and the plants 40cm apart in each row, making a total of 5 plants per metre. Spiral rabbit guards and canes are recommended.

MULTISTEM TREES
ultistems are very individual, sometimes curious Mlooking trees and can have great impact on their own or planted as clusters and groups. They have proved increasingly popular over the last few years and we’ve seen them used in a great variety of situations from the entrance to grand hotels to the creation of enchanting coppices.
In particular Osmanthus is much sought after and these are available as ‘umbrella’ shaped multistems with tightly clipped domes. See opposite. 74

PLEACHED TREES
he ‘pleaching’ of trees is a traditional practice Tof pruning a tree to form horizontal tiers of lateral growth.
Ancient pleached trees can be seen in many old formal gardens around Britain. This method of pruning and forming of trees provides additional wind protection and privacy to a garden in a way that nothing else can.
Pleached trees look in keeping with the most traditional English garden, but have found a new niche in more modern gardens where a lack of privacy is so often a problem. They will create a leafy screen which will effectively and inoffensively block off intrusive windows from neighbouring properties. 80 81 82
Lime and Hornbeam are the trees most often chosen for pleaching, although many other types of tree can be used. Hornbeam will give a greater degree of privacy in the winter months, as tightly clipped mature trees will hold much of their leaf through the winter.

OLD FRUIT TREES
hese old fruit trees have been pruned for decades and Twill instantly lend an air of maturity and character to the garden. They will look perfect in the traditional country garden but will indeed be a useful addition to any garden.
Taken from orchards, the trees are mostly low branching making fruit picking easy. Please ask for more details. The old espalier pear trees are really spectacular and planted against a wall will give the impression that they were placed there by our forebears, whilst planted in rows as a free standing garden partition they will create an intriguing garden room.
This is truly a way of introducing an aura of bygone days and they will bring with them their own evidence of years of skilled husbandry.
You may find these trees surprisingly cost effective - please contact us for more details.

Anchoring & Guying Systems
Rootball Anchoring Systems Our Tree Anchor system is a cost effective way for securing trees up to 12m high. The cast aluminium anchor attached to a galvanised cable is driven into the ground using a drive rod and then tension is applied to the cable to lock the anchor in place. The rootball can then be held firmly in place using the tensioner supplied. This is generally the first choice because of the ease of installation and once installed there are no stakes or unsightly cables.

Topbuxus Health-mix was developed by Europe’s largest Box grower in response to a dramatic and disastrous escalation of the disease Cylindrocladium buxicola that has swept across the Continent and UK over the last few years. Based on a tonic already being used to increase the health of the growing plants, essential elements were added and we are now benefiting from an effective and very useful product.
Not only does Topbuxus Health Mix rapidly green up Box plants but it strengthens and encourages growth at the same time increasing their natural resistance to disease such as Box Blight.

Wildflower Seed We offer a selection of wild flower mixtures for different habitats and soil types. It is important that the correct mixture is chosen and a suitable maintenance regime adopted for successful establishment. Apart from cornfield annuals, wild flowers establish better on poor soils where there is little competition from vigorous grasses and weeds. The addition of fertilizer is not desirable.
Sowing Wild flower seed can be sown during most of the year, although March/April and August/September are most suitable. Prepare a weed free tilth, broadcast or drill the seed at 5gm per m2 and lightly harrow or rake into the surface. A Cambridge roller can be used to firm up the seed bed.
Maintenance First year Cut the sward to 5cm every two months or when the sward reaches 15cm, removing all cut material. Spot treat or dig out persistent, pernicious weeds. Cornfield annuals should not be cut until September. Subsequent years Cut to 5-6 cm during March/April and remove the cuttings. Cut again after the flowering season is over – normally September/October. For cornfield annuals, harrow the surface in autumn or spring to help regenerate the plants.

Sprinkler & Drip Irrigation
Fitting an irrigation system is simpler than is generally thought. First, check are unsure of your requirements. the flow rate of the tap you are using by doing this simple test. Run your tap into a bucket for one minute and then check how many litres you have in the bucket. Multiply this figure by 60. This will give you a flow rate in litres EXAMPLE per hour. Check the output figures for the sprinklers you are choosing. Flow rate at tap = 1800 litres per hour Then divide the flow rate of your tap by the output of the sprinkler. This will tell you how many sprinklers you can run at one time. If you need to You choose Micro sprinklers SMV-2.5 run more sprinklers than this, then use a Brass Splitter Valve (see page 90) (Output 1 litre per minute, 60 litres per hour). and have two timers running at different times. All you are likely to need is a hole punch but any other necessary tools would be in a normal tool box. 1800 ÷ 60 = 30 Most fittings simply push together. Please call for advice if you So you could run 30 sprinklers on this tap.

Testimonial:
Kingsdown have always been very supportive, courteous and offered tremendous help to us every time we place an order or have a quote request. Even when things have not quite gone to plan Kingsdown have always had a solution and been very quick to resolve any issues albeit this has been on a very rare occasion. The plant prices and quality have always been excellent; this has led to us earning more business on the back of other successful jobs. I feel we are more competitive using Kingsdown in our projects than with other suppliers.
