Hawthorn: The Trusty Foundation

  • Safe and Sturdy: A classic choice for paddocks, Hawthorn is non-toxic to animals and forms a dense, thorny barrier that helps keep livestock contained.
  • Ecological Oasis: It provides shelter and food for birds and insects, enhancing the biodiversity of your hedgerow.

Blackthorn: The Robust Protector

  • Resilient and Reliable: Known for its strength and thick growth, Blackthorn withstands the robust environment of a livestock field.
  • Wildlife Benefactor: Its blossoms and fruits (sloes) are valuable food sources for many native species.

Elder: The Gentle Giant

  • Versatile and Vibrant: Elder grows quickly and provides a lush, leafy addition to the hedge, offering shade and shelter.
  • Birds’ Delight: Its berries are a favourite among birds, ensuring a lively and dynamic hedgerow.

Hazel: The Flexible Friend

  • Beneficial and Bendable: Hazel is known for its flexible branches and catkins, which are valuable for local wildlife.
  • Nut Provider: It produces hazelnuts, which are a crucial food source for small mammals and birds.

Dog Rose: The Delightful Touch

  • Soft and Safe: With its non-invasive thorns and beautiful flowers, Dog Rose is safe for animals and adds aesthetic appeal.
  • Winter Sustenance: The hips (fruits) of Dog Rose are important for wildlife, especially in colder months.

FREE Specialist Delivery Available

Free specialist delivery on qualifying orders: At Harrod Outdoors, we take pride in delivering top-quality plants directly to your doorstep. Our delivery options are tailored to the size and type of plants you order, ensuring they arrive in excellent condition and ready to transform your outdoor space. We offer free specialist delivery on qualifying orders across most of the UK.

Typical lead time – around 3–4 weeks: Most orders take approximately 3–4 weeks to prepare and deliver. This time allows us to carefully source from our extensive range, prepare your plants to our high standards, and ensure everything arrives in peak condition.

Kerbside delivery only: All deliveries are kerbside, meaning your plants will be unloaded at the front of your property (driveway or kerbside) and will not be carried beyond this point. It is your responsibility to move the plants to their final location once delivered.

Safe place required: Please specify a safe place for box, pallet or van deliveries in your order notes. If none is provided, drivers will leave your order where they deem reasonable. Pallet and large tree deliveries require flat, solid access such as tarmac, concrete or brickweave – we cannot deliver onto gravel, shingle, grass or public roads or pathways.

Be available on the day of delivery: It is essential that you are contactable on your provided phone number in case the driver needs to reach you. If access is restricted, no safe place is available, or the driver is instructed not to leave the order, delivery will fail and additional delivery charges will apply or you may need to collect from the local depot.

Plan ahead: We recommend not booking landscapers or gardeners solely based on estimated delivery dates, as occasional delays can occur due to factors beyond our control. For full details, view our Delivery Policy or contact us for advice before ordering.

If you need help selecting the right plants or have specific delivery requirements, our friendly team is here to assist. You can trust us to handle your order with expertise every step of the way. View our Delivery Policy or Contact Us for more information.
