Sweet Almond (Prunus dulcis) is a fruit tree that blooms in April with light pink flowers and gives the garden a clear sense of spring. The fruits initially resemble small green peaches, but the flesh is dry and inedible. The kernel in the middle of the fruit is an edible almond that can be used directly or in baking.

The tree thrives best in full sun and in nutrient-rich soil. It should be watered and fertilised regularly during the growing season to maintain good growth and fruit set. Due to the Danish climate, cultivation in a greenhouse or in a warm location, for example against a south- or west-facing wall, is recommended to protect against frost and fungal diseases.

Sweet Almond has a broad-crowned growth form and can reach a height of 2–4 metres and a width of 3–4 metres. The leaves are elongated and green, and the flowers are white to light pink. The fruits usually ripen in September.

Sakhalin cherry, also known as Prunus sargentii, is a medium-sized deciduous tree that develops a broad, vase-shaped crown. With age, the tree acquires a more spreading and multi-stemmed structure, giving it a characteristic and natural appearance in the garden.

The leaves are medium-sized and elongated with a distinct tip. They emerge in a dark bronze-red tone, later becoming fresh green and ending the season with intense red and orange-red autumn colours. The smooth, reddish-brown bark with light lenticels darkens over time and develops pronounced horizontal stripes.

The tree flowers profusely in April and the first half of May with large, light pink flowers that often appear before the leaves. Fruit set is rare, but small black-red berries can be seen in some years.

Sakhalin cherry thrives best in sun to partial shade and prefers a nutrient-rich, well-drained soil. It tolerates many soil types but should not be planted where water stands. In heavy clay soil, the soil can be loosened and supplemented with gravel or sand for better drainage.

The tree is suitable as a specimen plant in gardens, parks and avenues, where it can be highlighted as a decorative element. During the establishment phase, staking is recommended to ensure stable growth.

The willow-leaved pear 'Pendula' is a small tree characterised by its weeping and spreading crown. It is often grafted onto a stem, which gives a clear trunk height and a crown that develops from round to umbrella-shaped and later flat-topped.

The leaves are narrow and covered with fine, soft hairs that give a silvery-grey tone in spring and later a grey-green colour. The foliage resembles that of willow or olive trees and contributes to a light and elegant appearance. In autumn, the leaves take on subtle light yellow shades, and leaf fall occurs late in the season.

The bark is initially silvery white due to the many fine hairs, but with age becomes grey and develops fissures. In April and May, the tree blooms with white to cream-white flowers with reddish stamens, gathered in corymbs and with a slightly sweet scent.

After flowering, small greenish-brown fruits may form, which are not edible but are sometimes taken by birds after frost. The tree thrives best in full sun and in ordinary, well-drained garden soil. It is hardy, wind-resistant, and tolerates drought once established.

The willow-leaved pear is often used as a specimen tree or in small groups, where its light foliage and weeping growth habit create contrast and structure in plantings.

The Weeping Mulberry, botanically known as Morus alba 'Pendula', is an ornamental tree with a characteristic weeping growth form. The tree develops a broad crown with downward-curving branches, giving an elegant and tranquil expression in the garden.

The leaves are heart-shaped and dark green, creating a dense and decorative foliage mass during the summer. In May and June, the tree blooms with small white flowers, which may later be followed by light, white fruits in late summer.

The tree thrives best in full sun and in ordinary, nutrient-rich garden soil. It grows moderately and usually reaches a height of about 3 metres and a width of about 2 metres, making it suitable for medium-sized gardens or as a specimen tree in parks.

The Weeping Mulberry is moderately hardy and requires only limited maintenance, making it a practical choice for garden owners who want a decorative tree with a natural, weeping appearance.

Common Wild Apple (Malus sylvestris) is a moderately growing tree with a naturally spreading and broad crown. The species is native to Denmark and is characterised by its great hardiness and ability to thrive in many soil types, even where the soil is periodically moist.

The leaves are small, oval and fresh green with light yellow autumn colours. Young shoots are brownish-green, while older trunks develop a grey-brown, crust-like bark that can flake off in small pieces.

In spring, the tree is covered with many small white to pinkish-white flowers that attract beneficial insects. Later, small, oval yellow-green fruits of 3–4 cm develop, which are tart in taste. The fruits can be used for jelly or marmalade and serve as food for birds during the winter months.

The tree thrives best in full sun or partial shade and requires no special growing conditions. It can be planted individually, in groups or as part of a hedge, where its wind resistance and natural form come into their own. When planting, staking is recommended during the first two seasons to ensure good establishment.
