Sweet Chestnut 'Regal' - 1 tree
Sweet Chestnut ‘Regal’ makes an excellent choice for the larger garden as it is more compact than many varieties, growing to 5m (16’) tall in 10 years. An ideal specimen tree for lighter soils and even tolerates coastal conditions. This attractive tree has shiny green leaves and showy, fragrant mid-summer blossom that is followed by tasty sweet chestnuts in October. Harvest the nuts as they fall to the ground - they can be stored through to January for roasting or making purees. Sweet Chestnut ‘Regal’ is self-fertile and therefore does not require a pollination companion. Sweet chestnut trees will begin to produce nuts three to four after planting. Height: 5m (16’). Spread: 4m (13’).
