Alnus incana, the Grey Alder is more attractive and more tolerant of harsh conditions than the Common Alder. It is a smaller tree than common Alder, still fast growing but more of a medium size. Grey Alder has distinctive pointed leaves, silvery grey on the underside. Extremely tough (it originated in Siberia), Grey Alder is tolerant of dry areas, urban conditions and air pollution. False cones in the autumn provide food for small birds. Like all alders this is a tree that is outstanding in wet ground.
Good for taller hedges and screens 2m+. To 20m
