Please Note

These seeds should ideally be sown this season. All our packets have ‘Sow by Date’ guidance on them, this is the date the seeds should be sown in order to achieve the highest rate of germination. You will still see the same high-quality plants if sowing in seasons after the ‘Sow by Date’ but may see a reduction in germination rate

Davidia involucrata is a deciduous tree, with large heart-shaped leaves with soft hairs on their undersides. Known as the handkerchief tree, in May Davidia involucrata is hung with pairs of white bracts, designed to protect the flowers.

Key Features

  • Prefers full sun
  • Prefers part shade

Pack Contents: 1 x 10Ltr Potted Plant

Size: 15m x 10m

Height: 15m

Description

  • Deciduous tree
  • Heart-shaped leaves
  • Large white bracts in May
  • Sun or part shade
  • RHS Award of Garden Merit

    When, in May, Davidia involucrata is festooned with pairs of showy white bracts resembling what appear to be hankies drying, it is easy to understand why its common name is the handkerchief tree. The undersides of its large heart-shaped, mid-green leaves are covered in a soft down.

    Cultivate this unique deciduous tree in a sunny or partly shaded site in fertile moist well-drained soil, sheltered from strong winds. A mature Davidia involucrata can reach a height of 15 metres and have a spread of up to 10 metres.

    How you will receive your plants:

    Selected by our team of experts and sent from our nursery, you will receive your plant in a 9cm pot, ready to plant out.

    Can’t plant straight away?

    Place in a sheltered spot and water regularly to keep the compost moist.

    Dig a hole approximately twice as deep and 3 times as wide as the plant’s rootball. If your soil is heavy mix in a soil improver before backfilling. Firm the soil around the plant and water thoroughly.

    Water shrubs regularly in the first year after planting and in dry periods

    When to plant and what to expect at different times of the year

    You can plant hardy shrubs, trees and perennials at any time of the year avoiding the two extremes of heat and cold. During the summer months when it is hot and dry the need for watering becomes crucial to aid successful establishment and in the winter when the soil is frozen the plants will not be in active growth either above or below ground and risk getting cold damage. The same is true on the stage or growth you can expect your plants to be delivered in and this will be directly related to the time of year and the season.

    When ordering through the year, here’s a summary of what to expect when receiving your plants:

    Spring Months: Plants supplied in spring will be starting to show signs of active growth above and below ground.

    Summer Months: Plants supplied in the late summer will be more advanced in size and flower stage

    Autumn Months: In the autumn plants will be changing colour, showing signs of leaf colour breakdown and be preparing to shut down for winter.

    Winter Months: Plants ordered and supplied during the winter months will be dormant and therefore may not be showing growth above the soil level or consist of bare branches with no leaves or bare roots with no soil.

    These are all perfectly normal and natural for these types of plants growing in the northern hemisphere. All will still have a very healthy root system that can be planted when the weather is favourable by keeping the new soil level equal to the pot level and therefore not covering the crown of the plant at all. Planting during the autumn and winter months will allow for early establishment in the season and a bigger and better display throughout the main growing season.
