The 'Sheerwater Seedling' is the perfect tree for a restricted space as this Mountain Ash has an upright habit and maintains a narrow spread. The ascending branches are clothed in mid-green leaves which are accompanied by sprays of white flowers in spring. This tree offers a delightful autumn display as the leaves fade to orange and clusters of orange-red fruits appear in abundance. The fruits are popular with wildlife and they hold on the tree well into winter. This tree will provide you with year round interest and works well as a specimen or at the back of a border.
