Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between bare root and root ball plants?

Bare root plants are supplied without soil, ideal for dormant-season planting and quick root establishment. Root ball plants come with soil around their roots, offering greater stability and often used for larger evergreens and instant impact hedging.

Which bare root hedging plants grow fastest for privacy?

Fast-growing options for UK privacy hedging include cherry laurel, common laurel, and green beech. These varieties establish quickly, providing effective year-round or seasonal screening when planted as bare root stock.

How should I choose between evergreen and deciduous bare root plants?

Choose evergreen bare root plants if you want year-round coverage and privacy. Deciduous species, like beech or hornbeam, are ideal if you’re seeking seasonal interest or a traditional hedge that changes through the year.

Are root ball or bare root plants better for autumn planting?

Both are suitable for autumn planting, but root ball plants (especially evergreens) handle earlier planting and transplant shock better. Bare root plants are usually best from late autumn through winter, when plants are fully dormant.

What should I consider when comparing prices and sizes of bare root hedge plants?

Compare plant height, species characteristics, and grade. Taller or more mature plants cost more upfront but deliver instant impact. Bulk packs and smaller plants offer best value for large projects and establish well with proper care.

Do root ball or bare root plants need much watering after planting?

Yes, all newly planted root ball and bare root stock should be watered well during the first growing season, especially in dry spells, to ensure strong establishment.
