(image for) Rootex Root Control Bag (95 Litre)
£28.95 inc. p&pRootex Root Control Bag (95 Litre)A Rootex Bag will produce a tree with more fibrous roots, reduced vigour and will promote early fruiting. Rootex is a special patented copper coated fabric. When the root tip comes into contact with the copper it stops growing, the apical dominance is interrupted and new feeder (fibrous) roots develop further back towards the tree. This prevents roots from circling and enables better absorption of water and nutrients. Rootex is permeable, allowing water and nutrients to pass through it. A tree grown in a Rootex Bag can be transplanted to another site without damage to the root system even 10 years after it was originally planted. These large bags are ideal for large trees such as walnuts, chestnuts and mulberries. Width 45cm x length 45cm x depth 45cm. Capacity: 95 litres.Buy Now

Description

Juglans regia 'Buccaneer'

This walnut tree is well suited to UK growing conditions, producing heavy crops of round, thin-skinned nuts from an early age. The nuts are of very good quality and have a rich, buttery flavour.  Ideal for eating fresh but also especially prized for pickling.


Pollination: Self-fertile.


Despatched within 10 days.


 

If you have a spacious garden and wish to plant a stately tree, consider a walnut tree. These trees need ample room as they grow quite large. For smaller spaces, you can either regularly prune the tips or plant them in a Root Control Bag to limit their size.

 

Walnuts will succeed on a wide range of soil types ranging from light sandy loams to heavy soils, provided they are well drained. They prefer an open position provided they are given shelter from spring frosts during the flowering period.

 

Bare root trees are only available when they are fully dormant (usually from late November/December until late March). Where we quote a height on despatch, this includes the root system.
 

Don't forget to include tree stakes and ties on your order.  All young fruit trees require staking and for better establishment we strongly advise using Rootgrow when planting (as recommended in RHS planting guidelines).
