Product Details

Our Horse Friendly Mixed Hedging mix is super wildlife friendly and suited to most soil conditions.

Half of the plants will be thorns – hawthorn or blackthorn. These form the scaffolding of your hedge through which everything else will grow. We suggest you plant the whole back row of your hedge with these to make sure they are spread evenly along the rows.

All you need to do is simply choose the height of the plants you want to plant now and the number of plants you need. On this listing you cannot order specific plants – if you want to do that you can order each variety individually in our shop – but you will get a beautiful and Best Value hedge!

We recommend 5 plants per metre in a double zig-zag row for a thick hedge, but you can get away with 3-4 per metre in a staggered row if you don’t mind waiting an extra year or two to form a thick hedge.

Keep them well watered – especially in the Spring and Summer in the first year of planting. If you are not sure how many plants you need or which varieties suit your garden please just contact or call us and we will be happy to offer friendly advice!

For best results plant with Rootgrow gel – it increases the growth rate by up to 50% and really helps the plants establish.

Many apologies but due to a change in the DEFRA plant health regulations following Brexit we cannot ship plants to Northern Ireland – we are working on this and hope a solution is found soon!
