Philadelphus ‘Manteau d’Hermine’ is a delightful dawrf deciduous shrub that brings beauty and fragrance to any garden. This stunning mock orange cultivar is a compact variety, growing to a manageable height of 1-1.5 metres (3-5 feet), making it perfect for smaller gardens or as part of a mixed border.

In late spring to early summer, ‘Manteau d’Hermine’ bursts into bloom, producing an abundance of pure white, double flowers that cover the shrub like a snowy mantle. The flowers are sweetly scented, filling the air with a delightful orange-blossom fragrance that attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies to the garden.

The dark green, ovate leaves provide a lovely backdrop for the flowers and remain attractive throughout the growing season. In autumn, the leaves turn a subtle yellow before falling, revealing the shrub’s elegant, arching stems that add interest to the winter garden.

‘Manteau d’Hermine’ is a versatile shrub that can be grown in a variety of settings. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and is adaptable to most well-draining soils. This mock orange is also relatively low-maintenance, requiring only occasional pruning after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth.

To ensure your Philadelphus ‘Manteau d’Hermine’ thrives, plant it in a spot with well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a strong root system. Once established, mock oranges are relatively drought-tolerant but benefit from occasional watering during extended dry periods. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the shrub to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Prune your ‘Manteau d’Hermine’ immediately after flowering, removing any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to maintain a desired shape and promote healthy growth.

What Are Bare Root Trees?

Bare root trees are young trees sold without soil around their roots during their dormant season. This method of selling trees has been practised for centuries and offers numerous advantages for both gardeners and the environment. Typically available late Autumn to early Spring.

The Bare Root Advantage

Cost-Effective

Bare root trees are typically less expensive than their container-grown counterparts. Without the need for pots, soil, and extensive care during growth, these savings are passed on to you.

Easier to Plant

The absence of soil means bare root trees are lighter and easier to handle. This makes planting a breeze, especially when dealing with larger quantities or varieties.

Quicker Establishment

Counter-intuitively, bare root trees in some instances establish faster than container-grown trees. Their exposed root systems quickly adapt to native soil, developing a robust network that supports rapid growth.

Environmentally Friendly

Bare root trees are a green choice. They require less water during nursery care and transportation, reducing their carbon footprint. Plus, there’s no plastic pot waste!

When to Plant Bare Root Trees

The window for planting bare root trees is limited to their dormant season, typically from late autumn to early spring. This period allows the trees to establish themselves before the demands of new growth in spring.

Planting and Care Tips

  1. Soak roots in water for a few hours before planting
  2. Dig a hole wide enough to accommodate the spread roots
  3. Plant at the same depth as the soil mark on the stem
  4. Backfill with native soil, firming gently
  5. Water well and mulch around the base
  6. Stake larger trees to provide support

Why Choose Bare Root Trees?

  1. Value for Money: Get more trees for your budget
  2. Wider Selection: Access to a broader range of species and varieties
  3. Better for Transplanting: Less shock to the tree during the planting process
  4. Ideal for Larger Projects: Perfect for hedgerows, orchards, or woodland creation

Environmental Impact

By choosing bare root trees, you’re making a positive impact on the environment. These trees are carbon positive, meaning they absorb more carbon dioxide than is produced in their cultivation and transportation. As they grow, they continue to sequester carbon, improve air quality, and provide habitats for wildlife.

Embrace the bare root revolution and watch your garden flourish with these dormant dynamos. Plant a legacy that will grow for generations to come!
