Before we confirm your order please can you take the time to review and confirm the trees you would like us to deliver, and to sign the attached Tree Agreement.

Confirm your tree bundles

These are the numbers of the respective tree bundles in your original order. Please take the time to review your order and make any changes necessary. All trees used in the bundles will be 1-year cell-grown transplants. All bundles are supplied with biodegradable 60 cm spiral guards and 90 cm bamboo canes for each tree supplied.

Mini Grove

Mini Grove is a single species bundle with a choice of six native trees – alder, field maple, hazel, oak, rowan or silver birch. Our smallest bundle, Mini Grove is ideal for small healthcare settings where planting space is limited. Please note that due to high fulfilment costs we are limiting requests for the Mini Grove bundles to two per site. Applicants requiring more trees can apply for the standard Grove bundles in multiples of thirty.

Species choice for Mini Grove bundles

If you are ordering more than one Mini Grove and would like multiple species please email your preferences to info@nhsforest.org after submitting this form.

Grove

Grove is a single species bundle with a choice of six native trees – alder, field maple, hazel, oak, rowan or silver birch; the bundles can be requested individually – for example, to plant a small copse, create a walkway border, or integrate larger trees into a newly planted hedgerow – or planted in combination with other bundles.

Species choice for Grove bundles

If you are ordering more than one Grove and would like multiple species please email your preferences to info@nhsforest.org after submitting this form.

Urban

Urban is our smallest mixed bundle, ideal for built up areas with limited space for planting, or to supplement areas with existing tree cover. Each bundle contains crab apple, hazel and rowan, all smaller trees that will tolerate compact soils and thrive in urban settings, both planted together or dispersed.

Shelterbelt

Shelterbelt is a linear planting mix developed as a tree-centric alternative (and / or supplement) to traditional hedging. Comprising alder, goat willow, hawthorn, rowan and silver birch, these bundles can be used to create bands of tree cover for shade and shelter, acoustic and visual screening, or to mitigate against soil erosion.

Wellbeing

Wellbeing bundles are designed to facilitate the development of green spaces that support mental and physical health. Each bundle contains crab apple, hazel, rowan, silver birch and wild cherry, mid-sized trees selected for their visual qualities and intended as a focus point in natural therapeutic environments.

Blossom & colour

Blossom & Colour is the most visually focused bundle type, made up of species characterised by their blossoms, berries and autumnal leaves. A mix of crab apple, hawthorn, hazel, rowan and wild cherry, the trees can be used singularly to add colour to open spaces or planted together to establish a diverse native copse.

Nature

Nature bundles are ideal for establishing or expanding green spaces to benefit environmental and community health. Alder, blackthorn, dogwood, goat willow and hawthorn are compact species but with the potential to support a high level of biodiversity when used to create verdant habitat for birds and animals.

Wild Food

Wild Food bundles will appeal to those with a taste for foraging. Featuring a selection of native fruit and nut species (which could be used to produce traditional chutneys and preserves), this combination of blackthorn, crab apple, elder, hazel and rowan is perfect for forest gardens and other productive spaces.

Lowland

Lowland for land less than 250m above sea level; a mix of oak, field maple, hawthorn, hazel and silver birch.

Upland

Upland for land more than 250m above sea level; a mix of alder, crab apple, hawthorn, rowan and silver birch

Wetland

Wetland for very damp, rough or low-lying areas; a mix of alder, dogwood, elder, goat willow and silver birch.

Hedging

We recommend sites consider planting groups of trees wherever possible to gain the benefits of increased tree canopy and improved flood prevention. However, when planting groups of trees isn’t possible, we do offer a hedge bundle of 60 trees. This creates a hedgerow 15-30 metres long, depending on whether it is planted in single or double rows.

Planting Evidence

For each of your planting sites we require some key information before we can send trees:

GPS coordinates or a grid reference for the mid-point of your site.

A recent photo of the planting site. If it’s a large area please take a photo from both ends.

A screenshot of Google Maps satellite imagery for the site (or any similarly detailed aerial view) marked with an “X” indicating the position from which the site photo was taken.

If you are planting in multiple areas across your location please provide this evidence for each area. If you are unsure, please have a look at some examples of suitable images that would fulfil our requirements here.

Thank you for your help in providing this information, this will help us greatly in providing evidence to the Forestry Commission.

Planting Location

Planting location(Required)

Please provide GPS coordinates or an OS Grid Reference for the mid-point of the planting area. See here for our suggestions on how to obtain suitable coordinates for your site.

GPS Coordinates

OS Grid Reference

GPS Coordinates(Required)

If you are providing GPS coordinates please use this format: 51.501050, -0.14245043. The longitude (i.e. the second number) may be preceded by a ‘-‘ sign.

OS Grid reference(Required)

If you are providing a grid reference please use this format: TQ 29030 79648.

Google Maps screenshot(Required)

Zoom in to capture the planting area.

Accepted file types: jpg, jpeg, png, pdf, Max. file size: 128 MB.

Photograph of planting site(Required)

Please submit a recent photo of the planting site taken in-situ, at ground level and encapsulating as much of the planting area as possible (see here for examples).

Once you have planted we will also need an ‘after’ photo of the trees in the ground; it is a good idea to include any adjacent landmarks as this will help you to take the second picture from roughly the same position. Please note that we cannot accept Google Street View images or ‘historical’ photos with the site in the background – the focus of the photo must be of the planting location specifically, and must be pictured as it appears today.
