Ideal for organic gardeners, Vitax Winter Tree Wash is a blend of natural plant and fish oils for control of overwintering insect pests on fruit trees and bushes during the dormant season (November through to February). It will control hibernating pests and their eggs thereby preventing infestation when the growing season begins.

Winter Tree Wash works by purely physical means and is suitable for edible crops and ornamental plants.

Winter Tree Wash controls the eggs, larvae and nymphs of aphid (including greenfly, blackfly and whitefly) and other over-wintering insect pests on most fruit trees and bushes including apple, pear, plum, cherry, gooseberry, blackberry, raspberry, blackcurrant and redcurrant. Also suitable for vines under glass.

Winter Tree wash is the only product recommended by the RHS for treating pests on deciduous fruit trees and bushes in the winter.


Price includes p&p.

(image for) Rootex Root Control Bag (45 Litre)
£16.95 inc. p&pRootex Root Control Bag (45 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. These medium sized bags are ideal for smaller trees and figs, which benefit from root restriction. 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. Width 30cm x length 30cm x depth 45cm. Capacity: 45 litres.Buy Now
