We grow a range of instant hedging plants here on the nursery in Lancashire. Instant hedges provide immediate impact, which means you won’t have to wait 2–5 years for your hedge to establish. All the growing of the instant hedges takes place on the nursery, where they are carefully planted into hedging troughs at usually three plants per metre and nurtured into an instant hedge that can be planted year-round.
Our instant hedging comes pre grown in 1-metre lengths and is available in various heights and varieties. With a pre grown, ready-made hedge, the plants and the roots are already knitted together, making installation a straightforward process. Simply dig a trench of the required length, depth and width, remove the plants from their pots and install the plants in 1-metre sections to the length required. Backfill, water and feed your new hedge to help it make a big impact straight away.
Our mature hedging plants also have a very high success rate as all hedges are pot grown, meaning there is no damage to the root system. With both evergreen and deciduous hedging varieties to choose from, we should be able to provide you with a solution to your project.
