Also known as Sorbus Intermedia.

Does anyone know of a garden centre with a website in the St Lo-Vire- Villers Bocage triangle where i might find this gorgeous tree to buy as a sapling(s)?

I have found them in the UK but dont relish the idea of carting them over!

A pretty tree with green leaves on the upside and silver underneath.

Thanks gang

Hi Chris, we have slogged through our print outs from various websites here - not in your area, and pepinieres catalogues, but have not found any that stock 'intermedia', or 'aria', which I think is a very similar tree, apart from the leaf shape.

If you are absolutely set on that one variety, if you get bare rooted saplings from the uk, that is if you intend to plant in the next 3 weeks or so, they are really easy - unless of course you are coming on the plane,  but even 10 of them will be fairly light and manageable. 

If you do bring bare rooted plants over they need to have the roots in damp shredded newspaper, not straw, so you must specify this if ordering from a uk supplier.
