Pleached tree in container
in Plants
Hi all,
I want to add screening in my garden to screen overlooking houses.
I want to add screening in my garden to screen overlooking houses.
I’m looking at purchasing 2 mature pleached trees. My issue is the area is concreted so I can’t grow them in the ground.
can mature pleached trees grow in large containers? Are there any particular type of pleached trees that will be best suited for containers?
thanks all

It will need a huge, very heavy pot to keep it upright.
Not at all sure that it is do able.

A screen with climbers is far better, more easily achieved, and plenty will be fine in containers, with less maintenance
