Hedging
Hedges create shelter and privacy and they define your garden. With the largest range of bareroot hedging in Ireland we can supply a hedge to suit any site or requirement.
Bareroot hedging | mid-November to March
Bareroot hedging is only available while the plants are dormant from mid-November to March. You can learn more about the differences between bareroot and potted plants and about planting a bareroot hedge in our advice section.
Potted hedging | all year round
Potted hedging is available all year, but the best selection, and the best time to plant, is in late spring (April to May) and early autumn (September to October).
