The detail
You can choose from an assortment of evergreen, semi-evergreen and deciduous hedging plants—each providing its own style of structure, movement & seasonal appeal. The collection includes deep green conifers with soft, feathery sprays; golden or cream-edged variegated foliage for brightness; smooth apple-green leaves for a fresh contemporary look; textured ribbed leaves that shift through seasonal colours; and flowering or berrying shrubs that bring life to wildlife-friendly gardens. Heights vary from compact, modern screens to tall, substantial boundary hedges suitable for privacy, driveways, large gardens or formal settings.
Each hedging plant is supplied as a healthy, fresh & fully established 2L rootball in its nursery pot, grown in premium peat-free compost & raised to ensure strong early development. These are large, outdoor-ready young shrubs, not plugs or liners, delivered with robust branching, vigorous foliage & mature root systems that establish quickly once planted. They are easy to grow, adaptable to many soil types & thrive with minimal pruning. Perfect for creating long-lasting privacy screens, structural borders, formal avenues, natural hedgerows or modern garden backdrops.
