Superior, generative seedling variety from the only progeny tested Robinia pseudoacacia seed orchard in Hungary. The priority during the selection and breeding process was to achieve increased yield and rapid growth at a juvenile age. The result of 3 decades of research and development is a 60-70% increase in yield when compared to the common species.

Typically, available in the form of 60-100 cm bare-rooted seedlings.

High wood density with approx. 700-750kg/m3 when kiln dry with a Janka score of 1,700 lbf.

Main characteristics:

  • Extremely fast growth
  • Increased CO2 sequestration capacity compared to common species
  • Climate resilient
    • Drought tolerant
    • Thrives in low quality, sandy, marginal soils
    • High resistance to pests and diseases
  • Ideal for:
    • Biomass plantations
    • Afforestation/Forest Renovations
    • Forest belts
    • Honey production
    • Plantations for carbon offset project development

Price: from 0.95 GBP / seedling

We offer forestry advisory services to help you with the soil sampling, planting spacing, maintenance of the plantation!

Delivery available for 2024 Spring planting season.

Salix alba ‘Corvinus’ is a fast-growing white willow variety resulting from a special selective breeding process. Due to its longer vegetation period and extreme growth, this variety can produce significant biomass yields. It is a tree-shape variety with strong shoots, producing woodchips and fuelwood that contains a lower ratio of bark. It has a great environmental adaptation ability and is the most resistant variety to insects and causative agents.

Available in the form of 20-30 cm cuttings, larger sizes available upon request.

Main characteristics:

  • Short rotation coppices (SRC), with a rotation period of 2-3 years
  • Up to 10 rotation periods are possible
  • 22 atrotonnes/ha/year biomass on good soil
  • Excellent productivity on average soils as well
  • Easy cultivation and harvest – suitable for large areas
  • 1. variety in Hungarian field comparison tests

 Ideal for:

  • Biomass plantations
  • Afforestation projects
  • When planted with wider planting spaces, it can produce quality roundwood

Price: from 0.4 GBP / cutting

Delivery available for 2024 Spring planting season.
