Would you like free trees for your front or back garden? // Hoffech chi gael coed am ddim ar gyfer eich gardd flaen neu gefn?

Thank you for your interest in receiving free trees from the Coed Caerdydd project to plant in your garden.

Your participation will help to make Cardiff greener for current and future generations!

Please fill the requested information and book your collection slot to be considered for tree donations in the spring 2027 round.

Tree information

Our species selection focusses on native or naturalised varieties suitable for small to medium sized gardens. These will support wildlife, take up carbon dioxide, and provide seasonal interest.

You can select individual trees from our species list or pick from one of our mixed species packs (please see list below). If you are unsure which to select, please get in touch for advice using the contact details below.

We usually provide up to 5 free trees, but more might be made available upon special request, such as for hedgerows.

Please note these are 60-80cm whips (small trees).

We may have additional fruit and ornamental trees available to choose from at the event.

We recommend taking a look at the guidance document “Twigged” from the Woodland Trust to help you learn more about the types of trees and requirements: https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/media/1168/twigged.pdf (https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/media/1168/twigged.pdf)

Please note, it is recommended that trees should be planted at least 3-5m from your property if in the ground, not underneath any overhead cables, and not blocking drains.

We will try to fulfil as many requests as possible, but requests might be amended due to site suitability, stocks, and/or insufficient information provided. You will be contacted if we require any further information or have recommendations for different species more suitable to your location.

Your information

To help us provide the right trees we would like you to tell us about your garden and indicate which trees you are interested in planting.

We will also ask for your consent to contact you in future to monitor the progress of the trees.

Please note you must be a Cardiff resident to apply.

Diolch am eich diddordeb mewn derbyn coed am ddim o brosiect Coed Caerdydd i'w plannu yn eich gardd.

Bydd eich cyfranogiad yn helpu i wneud Caerdydd yn wyrddach ar gyfer cenhedlaeth heddiw a chenedlaethau’r dyfodol!

Rhowch y wybodaeth y gofynnir amdani a threfnwch eich slot casglu er mwyn i ni allu ystyried rhoi coed i chi yn rownd gwanwyn 2027.

Gwybodaeth am y coed

Mae ein dewis o rywogaethau yn canolbwyntio ar amrywiaethau brodorol neu wedi'u naturioli sy'n addas ar gyfer gerddi bach i ganolig. Bydd y rhain yn dda i fywyd gwyllt, yn dal carbon deuocsid, ac yn cynnig diddordeb tymhorol.

Gallwch ddewis coed unigol o'n rhestr o rywogaethau neu ddewis un o'n pecynnau rhywogaethau cymysg (weler y rhestr isod). Os nad ydych yn siŵr am yr hyn i’w ddewis, cysylltwch â ni i gael cyngor gan ddefnyddio'r manylion cyswllt isod.

Fel arfer rydym yn rhoi hyd at 5 coeden am ddim, ond efallai y bydd mwy ar gael ar gais arbennig, ar gyfer gwrychoedd er enghraifft.

Chwipiau 60-80cm (coed bach) yw'r rhain.

Efallai y bydd gennym goed ffrwythau a choed addurnol ychwanegol ar gael i ddewis ohonynt yn y digwyddiad.

Rydym yn argymell edrych ar y ddogfen ganllaw "Twigged" gan Coed Cadw i'ch helpu i ddysgu mwy am y mathau o goed a’u gofynion: https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/media/1168/twigged.pdf (https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/media/1168/twigged.pdf)

Argymhellir plannu coed o leiaf 3-5m o'ch eiddo os yn y ddaear, nid o dan unrhyw geblau uwchben, a heb flocio draeniau.

Byddwn yn ceisio ateb cymaint o geisiadau â phosibl, ond efallai y bydd ceisiadau'n cael eu diwygio oherwydd addasrwydd y safle, stociau, a / neu wybodaeth annigonol. Byddwn yn cysylltu â ch
