Our hedging plants range from 15cm to 600cm, offering flexibility for every need. Here’s what to consider:
Smaller Sizes (15–150cm): Budget-friendly but require denser planting for a full hedge. Ideal for long-term projects or those who enjoy nurturing their garden.
Larger Sizes (150cm+): More expensive but need fewer plants per meter. Perfect for instant privacy or immediate visual impact.
Balance your budget and timeline to choose between gradual growth satisfaction or an instant, established hedge.
The ideal starting size is typically 110–130 cm, balancing cost and quick establishment.
If you’re still not sure where to start, please contact us and we will be happy to help!
Bare Root
Cost-effective | Quick to plant | Low delivery cost
Bare root plants are sold without soil, lifted from fields during dormancy (October to April).
Root Ball
Mature | Affordable | High survival
Field-grown with soil intact, wrapped in burlap and in some occasions metal wire, and typically available from October to April.
Pot Grown
Year-round | Flexible planting | Highest survival
Pot-grown plants are grown in containers, available year-round, and can be planted anytime unless the ground is frozen.
When planting hedging plants, choosing the right density is essential for achieving a beautiful, lush hedge. Here’s a helpful guide tailored to the size and root type of your plants:
Bare root plants are cost-effective and great for dense coverage:
15–150 cm Plants: Space 4–6 plants per meter for even, uniform growth.
150 cm+ Plants: Space 3–5 plants per meter to create a fuller hedge.
You can plant in a single row for a traditional look or use a zig-zag formation for quicker and denser results.
Root ball and pot-grown plants have more developed roots and bushier growth, requiring fewer plants per meter:
15–90 cm Plants: Space 3–6 plants per meter.
90–150 cm Plants: Space 2–4 plants per meter.
150–250 cm Plants: Space 1–3 plants per meter.
250 cm+ Plants: Space 1–2 plants per meter.

Hazel grows at a moderate rate, typically adding 30-60cm per year in ideal conditions. It is an excellent choice for informal hedging or mixed native hedgerows, providing a dense, attractive barrier that is easy to maintain at your preferred height through pruning or coppicing.
Hazel produces long, golden-yellow catkins in late winter to early spring, which add early seasonal interest to the garden. By late summer to early autumn, it develops edible nuts (hazelnuts), which are decorative and attract wildlife.
Yes, Hazel is highly beneficial for wildlife. Its catkins provide an early source of pollen for bees, while its nuts feed birds, squirrels, and other small mammals in autumn. The dense foliage also offers excellent shelter and nesting opportunities, making it an integral plant for biodiversity-focused gardens.
Hazel thrives in well-drained, fertile soils and adapts to loamy, sandy, or clay types. It prefers a sunny or partially shaded position and tolerates windy or exposed sites, making it ideal for boundary planting. Hardy and adaptable, it performs well across a range of UK climates.
Hazel is low-maintenance. It benefits from occasional pruning or coppicing in late winter to encourage fresh, bushy growth. Coppicing can also be used to harvest hazel rods for garden supports or crafts. Once established, it requires minimal care and is drought-tolerant.
