Looking at the Price Tag: Are Pleached Trees Worth It?

The question often arises: Are pleached trees worth it or why are pleached trees so expensive? Recently Ideal Home approached Just Pleachy for the answers on this subject for their feature titled "Are pleached trees worth it? Here's what you need to know about David Beckham's garden must-have". At Just Pleachy, we specialise in everything about pleached trees, so naturally our nursery manager, Chandler, was delighted to help. Let's delve into the factors that influence the price of pleached trees and whether they offer a valuable return on your investment.

Species and Growth Stages 

Pleached trees come in various species, and their growth stages can differ significantly. Mature pleached trees, which have been expertly nurtured over time, tend to be more expensive due to the craftsmanship involved. Younger pleached trees, while still beautiful, may be more budget-friendly. Certain species, such as Magnolia, come at a premium, whereas Red Robin provides excellent value.

Paying in Time or Budget

When choosing pleached trees, it is all about finding the right balance between cost and the impact on your garden. Mature pleached trees come with a higher price tag but provide an instant transformation, offering immediate beauty and privacy. Younger pleached trees are a more cost-effective option, allowing you to enjoy the elegance of pleaching while your trees naturally mature over time.

If you are on a tight budget, our JP Essentials range offers a selection of high-quality pleached trees starting from £199, with every tree under £300. This range is designed for those who want the best value without compromising on quality. It is a handpicked collection of our most popular young pleached trees, carefully selected and expertly grown to maintain the same trusted standards at a more accessible price.

If you are looking for more variety, mature pleached trees, or customisation options, explore our full range of premium pleached trees to find the perfect fit for your garden.

Long-Term Benefits

Investing in pleached trees is not just about the initial cost. Consider the long-term value they bring to your property. Over the years, the benefits they offer can far outweigh the initial expense.

The price of pleached trees reflects the craftsmanship, time, and care invested in creating these elegant living sculptures. While they may come with a cost, the beauty, privacy, and long-term benefits they provide make pleached trees a valuable addition to your garden. So, whether you're dreaming of a garden like Beckham's or simply seeking a stylish, practical addition to your outdoor space, the answer is a resounding yes, pleached trees are a worthwhile investment. We stock a wide variety of species and sizes - so in the words of Kayleigh from Ideal Home, "Now all that's left to do is decide which pleached tree has stolen your heart". That's where we can help!
