We hope you will enjoy browsing through our latest catalogue.
In Tasmania we are fortunate to experience a seasonal, cool temperate climate and there is nothing
that indicates the change of seasons more than a deciduous tree. From the lush shoots or flowers of
spring, to the shaded canopy of summer, to the changing leaf colour of autumn and finally the ghostly
branches of winter, the deciduous tree is the perfect specimen for your garden. It will provide shade
through the heat of summer and allow sun into your garden in the cold of winter. We carry a large range
from the smaller growing Japanese Maples to larger Elms and Birches.
To ensure a wide selection of trees we order from a number of different suppliers. Therefore the
availability of stock listed in this catalogue is subject to delivery from our suppliers. If you do not see the
particular tree that you want listed, please enquire as it may be available.
We will notify customers as their orders are filled and unless prior arrangements are made we require
all orders to be collected by the end of July. This will ensure that customers receive their trees in prime
condition.
Whilst Chandlers Nursery will take every possible precaution to ensure that the trees we sell are true to
name and label, we cannot be held responsible for errors outside our control. We will cheerfully
undertake to replace wrongly labelled trees where possible or to substitute where necessary.
Please note that varieties not specified as potted will be bare-rooted.
PLANTING AND CARE
The site of planting should be well prepared prior to planting. Dig a hole roughly double the size of the
root ball and mix compost or manure with the existing soil. We recommend Chandlers Organic
Compost for planting. Water in well with Seasol and firm the soil gently. Seasol stimulates root growth
and minimises transplant shock. This is especially important as a lot of our ornamental trees are ground
grown and are dug up when dormant. Continue Seasol fortnightly until the beginning of spring. This will
improve drought hardiness of your tree. For people in drier areas, it would be advisable to plant fruit
trees with water storage crystals or Seasol Planting Gel .
Spring is the time to mulch around you new trees, ensuring to leave a gap around the trunk. This helps
retain moisture in the soil and prevents competitive weeds from sprouting. Our dry summers can make
it hard for trees to establish and we suggest several deep soakings a week either on a automatic
system or by hand will be suffice. Increase this to 3-4 times a week in very hot weather.
