Why choose green beech hedging

Pick the root type that suits your project: bare root is the most economical way to plant longer runs (supplied dormant, November to March), pot grown plants can go in the ground at any time of year, and root ball plants give instant established height in season.

Planting and care

Bare-root plants are supplied dormant between November and March. Plant within a few days of arrival for best results, keeping the roots moist and out of direct sun until they go in the ground. Standard spacing is 3 plants per metre, or 5 per metre for a denser, faster screen.

Read our complete bare-root hedging buyer's guide for full instructions on when to plant, planting depth, spacing, and what to expect in the first season.
