Country Hedging
This deciduous bare root hedging is planted between October and April when it is dormant.
It is suggested that you plant in two staggered rows about twelve inches (30cm) apart. The plants are then put in two foot (60cm) apart in each row. This means that you should allow one plant per foot (30cm) run. You can use just one variety if you wish, but if you do want to mix varieties it looks more natural if you have 5/8ths (60%) of one.
Do not use beech if the ground is very badly drained, but If you wish to have a similar hedge in these conditions plant Hornbeam. Do ask us to quote for smaller or larger sizes, or other varieties. It is advisable to order early if you require the larger sizes. Most of these plants are supplied bare root but towards the end of the season, or at your request, larger sizes are rootballed (at extra cost). The width of the hedge should normally end up at least 1/3rd of the height. That means that if you wish the hedge to grow to six foot and you are planting a double row you would plant the first row six inches in from the boundary and the second row eighteen inches in from the boundary. If you are planting a single row the plants would be planted twelve inches in from the boundary. By all means go for a greater width if you have plenty of space.
A quantity discount of 10% is given on 25 plus of any variety.
