Here at Mail Order Trees, getting your trees and plants to you quickly and in perfect condition is our top priority. A great feature of our specially designed cardboard boxes is that they are 100% recyclable, which will help to reduce your carbon footprint even further.
We have a standard flat rate charge of £9.95 per consignment (including VAT) to England and Wales so the more you buy, the more you save! Prices for Scotland, Grampian, the Highands can be calculated in the checkout area. Unfortunately we are unable to ship to any other locations aside from these. This means we do not ship to Isle of Wight, Channel Islands, Northern Ireland/Ireland and any Scottish Islands.
Our usual delivery time is up to 7-10 working days. We will, as ever, aim to stick to our usual timescale but please be aware that this may not always be possible. Please take the time to fill out the special instructions box in the checkout area with the details of a neighbour or safe place that your trees can be left. Every effort will be made to make deliveries in this time or on a date requested by you.
Mail-Order-Trees cannot be held responsible for delayed deliveries due to factors beyond our control such as Public Holidays or adverse weather conditions which make it impossible to lift bare-rooted trees. In cases such as these, you will be notified.
We can only deliver to physical addresses and not to PO boxes. A complete address including correct postcode must be provided. Incorrect postcodes cause more delays than omitting the postcode altogether.
Mail-Order-Trees cannot be held responsible for orders not received if an incorrect address is provided. It will also be necessary to give us details of where to place items should you be out when the delivery arrives. Mail-Order-Trees cannot be responsible for items lost if we have followed your instructions. A contact telephone number can also be very useful to our courier.
Traditionally grown in pots, Japanese maples and acers bring year-round, vibrant rich colour, which requires a balanced liquid feed to help maintain their striking foliage.
An easy-to-use alternative to a granular feed, Vitax Liquid Acer Feed contains a tailored mix of nutrients to help encourage strong growth and produce that stunning, colourful foliage associated with Japanese maples and acers.
Ideally suited for use with peat-free compost or free-draining growing media, Liquid Acer Feed can be used with plants grown in borders, pots or containers.
Sensitive to drought, in extremely warm conditions, feeding should be increased to prevent plant stress.
Applied every two weeks to prevent drying out, Liquid Acer Feed is cost -effective - a one-litre bottle of Liquid Acer Feed will make up to 50 watering cans.
Once diluted, it can be applied around the base of the tree during April to September.
1 cap filled to the top = 20 ml. Mix 1 capful of Vitax Acer Feed into 6 litres of water. Thoroughly water the solution into the soil around the base of the plants. Feed every 14 days from April to September.
Tip: Acers are sensitive to drought and in dry conditions, should be watered regularly between feeds.
