ASHLANDS TREES

"Having bought stock from you for the last three years, we've found that planting with your cell-grown trees not only increases our planting rate dramatically, but it increases the survival rate, saving us money beating up and also impressing our clients. We wouldn't buy anywhere else! Good service, good trees and good prices."

Paul Turkentine, Branchline Tree Services, Derbyshire.

"Ashlands Trees have been growing Oak and Sweet Chestnut from our own seed sources for the past four years. The trees produced have been excellent and survival rates very high when planted in our woods. Great care is taken to ensure that stock is produced from good provenances, particularly Quercus robur."

E.H.C.Brun, King's Lynn, Norfolk.

"Last November we planted 10,000 cell-grown oak supplied by you. The trees were planted by contractors in one compartment and have been kept clean. Despite the long hot summer, losses are less than one percent. I see ease of planting and low mortality as the principal advantages of cell-grown stock over bare-root."

Miles Barne, Sotterley Farms Ltd, Suffolk.

"We found the trees very easy to plant, especially using the planting tool in reasonably soft ground. We're glad to say we won't have to buy any replacements for drought victims. We'll be planting about 300 metres of new hedge next year and we'll certainly be buying Ashlands cell-grown plants for that."

Tony & Marion Field, Otley.

" I'm very satisfied with the 97% take in the first year, making Ashlands' trees a cost effective option. In the four months after planting, most plants almost doubled in size."

J.F.Shield, Burtree Farm, Crakehall.

“We have only had one failure out of 1100 trees you supplied us with in February. We are hoping to extend the wood in the future and Ashlands will be our first choice to supply.”
