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.
The English Oak Tree (Quercus robur) is a quintessential piece in any British garden. Timeless and distinct, it stands tall with its spreading canopy and lobed leaves.
Thriving in well-drained soil and adaptable to a wide range of conditions, the English Oak Tree is equally comfortable in full sun or partial shade. In spring, it graces your garden with inconspicuous yellow-green flowers, adding a pop of colour to your landscape.
As the seasons progress, the English Oak Tree undergoes a transformation. In summer, its lush green foliage provides shade and shelter, creating a vibrant space for wildlife. The shade also acts as the perfect place to relax on hot summer’s days.
In autumn, the tree bears acorns, which not only add visual interest but also serve as a vital food source for local wildlife.
With a projected height of 15 metres and a spread of 10 metres in 20 years, the English Oak Tree is a striking presence in any landscape.
Whether planted as a standalone specimen to provide shade and shelter, or incorporated into a mixed planting project to enhance biodiversity, it will be a cherished and enduring feature of your garden for generations to come.
