These are 2-year bareroot whips and measure between 60-80cm in height; except for holly which is a 9cm pot plant, 30-40cm.
For a single row of hedging, you will need 4 plants per metre; for a double row of hedging, you will need 6 plants per metre.
Our Traditional British Hedging Mix is created from a carefully balanced blend of 15 native hedging species. This wildlife habitat hedge transforms your garden into a sanctuary for birds, pollinators and small mammals, all while enhancing the character of your landscape.
Thoughtfully curated to attract and support a diverse range of wildlife, including pollinators, birds and small mammals, this diverse mix provides interest throughout the seasons as it grows, flowers and fruits - creating a dynamic, living ecosystem.
The Wildlife Habitat Hedging Mix is suitable for a wide range of soil types, making it an excellent choice for most gardens and landscaping projects. It thrives in loam, light-medium clay, neutral, slightly acidic or slightly alkaline soils, and in ground that stays moist but free-draining. It is not suitable for very dry soils, very strong alkaline soils, waterlogged ground, or heavy, poorly drained clay.
In addition to offering year-round visual appeal, this mix forms a natural barrier that provides privacy, shelter from the elements, and secure nesting and foraging habitats for local wildlife.
Our hedging whips are grown in the UK from UK origin seed.
If some species become unavailable, they will be swapped out for another appropriate species.
