Care Guides
Caring for Me
I'm easy to look after, but I do need proper care to be happy and thrive. You can find the care guide here for all the tips and tricks to keep me looking my best.
Planting Guide
How to Plant Me
If you haven’t planted me yet, no worries! Watch BBC1's Garden Rescue Presenter, Garden Ninja Lee Burkhill, explains the process in this fantastic step-by-step planting guide to get started and I’ll be happy in my new home in no time.
Staking Guide
Keep Me Steady
I need a bit of help getting settled. During my first couple of years, I can be a bit wobbly. That's where tree stakes come in, they're like my best pals, providing vital support. They stop me from rocking in the wind and keep my roots stable.
Watering Guide
Get Me a Drink
I need regular watering to thrive. In my early years, I get super thirsty, especially when it's hot. Watering me deeply and consistently helps my roots grow strong and keeps my leaves lush.
Pruning Guide
Give Me a Trim
If I’m looking a bit too bushy and unruly, I might need a trim. Check out the pruning guide to keep me in shape and looking sharp.
Help Guide
Yikes!
My leaves are turning brown and I'm not feeling myself. Check out the help guide to tackle issues with brown leaves and other common problems.
Underplanting
Flowery Friends
Looking to add some smaller, floral champions around me? Why not add some ready-made borders crafted to plant under pleached trees.

Insta
Share Your Snaps
I wasn’t always this stylish. I started off as a regular tree, but with love, care, and patience, I was transformed into a pleached tree trained to form nature’s very own privacy screen. I had quite the glow up! The friendly bunch over in Pleachy HQ always want to see how me and my buddies are growing in your garden. So share your photos on social media and tag @justpleachy on Insta for the world to enjoy!

Ancient Pleaching
Even the Romans loved pleached trees! The Gallic tribe of Nervii used plashing (an early term for pleaching) for defence in Julius Caesar's time (circa 60 B.C.).

Not Just a Pretty Face
Pleached trees reduce noise and provide homes for birds, bees, and butterflies, making them more than just visually striking.
