The trees in this scheme
Hazel tree
An excellent choice for an urban garden as it is small, colourful, shade tolerant, and resistant to air pollution. Long yellow lamb's tail catkins appear in mid-February, followed by bright green leaves in the summer, and hazelnuts in the autumn. These nuts are food for local wildlife, including jays, woodpeckers, and nuthatches.
