FAQs

What are the best trees to grow on or near decking?

Trees that flourish in containers and maintain a compact size are ideal for decking areas. You'll want varieties that offer seasonal interest without outgrowing their space, both in terms of height and root spread.

Mediterranean Favourites: An olive tree adds year round structure and looks stunning in sunny spots. Its silvery green foliage provides a sophisticated touch.

Springtime Charm: A dwarf flowering cherry tree offers delicate blossoms and soft colour, bringing a gentle burst of nature right to your doorstep. These are perfect for enjoying beautiful spring displays.

Architectural Elegance: For an evergreen option with a sculptural feel, consider a bay tree. A double corkscrew bay tree, for example, brings a sense of occasion to entrances and seating areas, providing evergreen beauty and a formal touch.

Each of these recommended trees is well suited for pot life, making them perfect for patios, balconies, and decked spaces. They provide the beauty of a garden without the need for extensive ground planting.

Are tree roots a problem on decking?

Tree roots don't have to be a problem on decking, especially when trees are grown in containers. When potted, tree roots are naturally contained and cannot spread far enough to cause damage to your decking. This is precisely why we offer container friendly tree gifts varieties for decking, they're easy to manage and safe for an outdoor space. Our specially selected trees include: Olives, Dwarf Cherry and Bays. These varieties are specifically grown to thrive in pots. They provide structure and beauty without the risk of root disruption. To ensure the health of your tree and the protection of your decking, always choose a pot with good drainage and raise it slightly off the deck. This prevents water from pooling underneath and potentially damaging the wood.

How do you care for a tree on decking?

Caring for container trees on decking is simple when you meet their basic needs: sunlight, water, and proper drainage. Most potted trees, like grape vines and olive trees, thrive in sunny, sheltered spots.

  • Watering: Crucial, especially in warmer months when pots dry out fast. Check soil often and water as needed.

  • Feeding: Apply a slow-release fertiliser in spring and summer for healthy foliage and better flowering or fruiting.

  • Winter Protection: Move your potted tree to a sheltered spot if harsh frosts are forecast, or add fleece for extra protection.

Every tree from Tree2mydoor includes access to our MyTree™ warranty. This provides monthly, tailored guidance to ensure your decking tree stays healthy and vibrant through every season. We're here to help, whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out!
