Overview

Our bare root hedging range offers a very low cost way of creating a screen. The plants will only available to buy (and plant) when they're completely dormant, which is typically the period between November and early April. They come with a known seed provenance, and to give them the best possible start in life, they've been grown in rich Herefordshire soil. Therefore, once planted out again in your own garden, they'll be raring to go. It will be easy to create your own hedgerow with this wonderful collection of native plants. We have chosen them all, not only because they display unique and distinctly beautiful characteristics, but because when planted together they will form a diverse and attractive screen that will provide a haven for wildlife. This is a robust mix of plants, which can cope in most positions including coastal or exposedsites. It has traditionally been used in rural settings for centuries, however this hedge will also work well in urban areas.
