How can I plant a blosson tree?
in Plants
Hello !
I am wanting to get a blossom tree (maybe more than one) for my garden. I have a perfect spot for them, sheltered and near a patio. But I don't know where to start!
Do I have to buy the actual tree, or can I get seeds or cuttings or whatever?
If I do have to buy an actual tree, can I get one from any garden centre?
Obviously the cheapest option would be better !
Thanks in advance !

It also depends what you mean by a 'blossom tree'.
Have a look in garden centres or online at specialists. There are plenty, but some growers might be short of stock.
They aren't cheap. Depending on the type of tree you want, you'll be starting at around £30 upwards, depending on maturity. A more mature specimen needs more knowledge to help it establish.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
If you live in Derbyshire, as I do.
