Taxus baccata Bare Roots 50 20/30 £119.40
The English Yew hedge plant, is the king of hedging. It is native, evergreen, dense, slow growing (so easy maintenance) and good in shade. It really doesn’t like wet, heavy clay soils but otherwise, it’s very easy to grow. Yew is one of the few evergreen species that can cope with being grown as a bare root plant so in autumn/winter (they’re available November to early April – sometimes late March) this is a really economic way to establish a new Yew hedge. Availlable in packs of 25 or 50 bare roots and grows 20-40cm per year.Slow Growing/Low MaintenanceEvergreenBare Root hedging plants are a great, cost-effective way for you to achieve your hedging goals.

Given the way in which they are grown, bare rooted plants are available from November until May as this is the time of year when the plants are dormant and can be safely lifted from the field. This category mostly consists of native, deciduous hedging species which many of them flower and/or berry so they make great hedges for wildlife and provide seasonal interest.Order now and get FREE Bonemeal/Fertiliser worth over 5.00 with every order! – A slow-release fertiliser that helps plants to establish roots whilst keeping them strong and healthy.

Buxus Sempervirens Bare Roots 25 20/30

Buxus Sempervirens Bare Roots 25 20/30 £69.24
The Box hedge plant (Buxus Sempervirens) is the most popular species for luxury low hedging. This evergreen hedging plant is perfect for hedges from 50cm up to 1.5m and is ideal for topiary. Box hedging plants have very small, dark green leaves so they’re easy to clip into a formal, neat shape and because Box plants are slow growing, you don’t have to clip too often – once a year is adequate – or twice if you’re really neat! Box hedge plants are surprisingly tough, standing up to almost all soil types, shade and drought, these bushy hedging plants lend themselves to edging pathways, formal hedges and decorative knotted hedge gardens.

Carpinus betulus Bare Roots 50 90/120 £101.40

Alnus glutinosa Bare Roots 50 150/180

Alnus glutinosa Bare Roots 50 150/180 £179.40
The Alder is a native, fast growing, deciduous species that’s particularly well suited to wet sites. Its young buds are a bit sticky (hence it’s Latin name) but develop into a nice dark, glossy leaf – and generally where it is grown in wet sites, it keeps it’s leaves in autumn for a considerably longer time than most other deciduous species. The other big advantage of Alder is that it’s roots fix nitrogen in the soil – so it enhances soil quality over time and is especially useful in areas with poor soil quality. Alder has slender male, reddish brown catkins and a female fruit which is hard, darker in colour and shaped like a very small pine cone – these female fruits often stay on the bushes throughout most of winter and look very attractive. Flowers early March-late May. Available in packs of 25 or 50 bare roots and grows 60cm+ per year.Fast GrowingWildlife FriendlyBare Root hedging plants are a great, cost-effective way for you to achieve your hedging goals.
