An elegant columnar rowan tree with dark green leaves, resembling fern fronds, that transform into a breathtaking display of oranges, yellows, and reds in autumn. In spring, delicate creamy-white flowers dangle from the branches, followed by vibrant pink berries that are a feast for the birds in autumn. This tree is an excellent choice for confined spaces or as a striking driveway tree, providing year-round visual interest. 'Glendoick Spire' thrives in sunny or partially shaded locations and tolerates windy conditions once established.
Requires minimal pruning. Remove any broken, diseased or crossing branches in late autumn or winter. When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole and stake firmly.
