Full Description

Once ripened each year the Wayfaring Tree Viburnum Lantana provides food for many animals and birds.

This deciduous shrub is a native species in Southern England and Wales. It’s extremely tough. The pliable coppiced shoots were once prized by woodlanders for tying bundles of sticks and besom brooms.

Delivery

All our stock is “lifted” to order, which means that they are “lifted” and packed the same day and sent off so delivery is made the following day hence you receive them as fresh as possible. They are well packed and they are able to stay in the bags they arrive in for up to 7/10 days out of any frosts but it is advisable to plant bareroot trees as soon as possible. We are able to give you a suitable delivery date after the order has been placed when we email your order of acknowledgement to you.
