Need help choosing your root type?

Our hedges come in a number of different root types to suit any budget or requirement:

  • Bare Root Hedging

    These are field grown plants, lifted during the dormant season (normally November-April) and delivered ready for planting without any soil on the roots. The most cost-effective way to plant a new hedge.

  • Potted Hedging

    We deliver these plants to you in the pots they are grown in, because there is no root disturbance they can delivered and planted all year round with excellent results.
