Order Common Alder saplings (Alnus glutinosa) online – a hardy native tree ideal for planting near rivers, streams, ponds, or any damp ground. These fast-establishing saplings are widely seen across the British countryside and are well known for improving soil thanks to their nitrogen-fixing root nodules.
Alder saplings thrive in moist and exposed sites, growing steadily into attractive medium-sized trees. They bear small, cone-like fruits and provide shelter and food for wildlife, making them a valuable choice for natural planting schemes, woodlands, and wetland restoration projects.
