I would suggest buying a Eucalyptus from a garden centre ,  very fast growing so it will be mature in say three years ,   and cheaper to buy small ,  the leaves are nice and they have the smell  too. are drought hardy cause they originate from  australia i believe ,  can be pruned , i prune the branches of  mine when it begins to look aged , and new growth  of about 2 feet grow in the summer . also if you get a stuffy nose good for bringing in you bedroom ,

I have two in my garden ,  one ive trained a honeysuckle over it,, the birds do go in to the feeders , so the smells not off putting for them .

How about a silver birch. British native, so supports wildlife. Lovely autumn colour. Cheap to buy. Get a small one, it will catch up with a big one in a few years.

We have a tree near the bottom of our garden, but neither of us can think of it's name ?? Had it about 5/6 years and it has berries, which the blackbirds love. Now about 15ft. high, we hang nuts and seed on the lower branches. There is a large Weigelia bush also that is a birds paradice, so rarely gets pruned.  A'la natural ??

Val, We are both at a loss, as to what our tree is called.
Some have Red berries, but our's are Yellow. Maybe there are male and female varieties Food for the winter birds, but the leaves do fall ?? -- I do so hope that you will find the right Tree for you. We would be at a loss, without our tree and the weigelia, together with The winter jasmine covering the rear wall. =  Birds paradice and our nature study.

If the tree I bought survives then good but if not its definitely a silver birch for me, I should've gone with that in the first place but it was the dry that worried me, it just shows you it doesn't always pay to follow your heart.

Never thought of a larch, I'm going to look that up.

There are many trees widely available for smaller gardens, in all shapes and sizes, evergreen and deciduous. Given that many of us have limited space in which to garden, it becomes important that any trees chosen are right for their surroundings, in terms of proportion as well as for their decorative value. You can also choose the Redbud. It is valued for its outstanding display of pink or white flowers in spring, redbud is an easy-to-grow small tree with delightful heart-shape leaves that turn golden-yellow in fall. It thrives in sun or partial shade.
