Tall and narrow - the perfect tree for pots and small gardens
Many of the most beautiful trees grow immensely over the years - and sometimes reach a crown diameter of five or more meters.Of course, such a copy does not fit into a classic terraced garden. However, there is a high and narrow alternative: the pillar tree.
Column shapes are ideal for small gardens
There are columnar varieties of almost every tree species. These grow very high in part, but remain very narrow and form without any cutting measures no wide crown. These shapes fit wonderfully into every little garden or front garden and can even serve as a screen - for example, if the curious neighbor should not look into the bedroom window. However, column trees also change their growth form: with age, most become conical or conical.
