Larix x eurolepis (Dunkeld Larch)
In 1897, the Dunkeld Larch was discovered in Dunkeld, Perthshire. It's a cross between the two parents, but with hybrid vigour. A similar hybrid was discovered in Switzerland at the same time, hence the two distinct Latin names! It is a deciduous conifer with a varied colour that contrasts nicely with other forestry trees in the autumn. The colour of new growth might range from pink to orange brown.
