Our CountryHedge is looking really good at the moment 🌿🍂

We’ve got a busy week ahead with quite a few orders being picked and sent out from the nursery.

It’s a great time of year to see the different plants that make up the hedge. You’ve got the autumn colour starting to come through, along with plenty of berries, so there’s lots of interest for wildlife too.

Our CountryHedge is grown in 1 metre sections and comes in three sizes:

🌿 100–125cm
🌿 120–150cm
🌿 140–160cm

It’s a really nice option if you want the look of an established mixed native hedge without having to wait years for smaller plants to fill out.

In stock now and ready for delivery from Hedging Plants Direct.

🌿 CountryHedge – Instant Native Hedging, Full of Life 🌿

Our CountryHedge Instant Mixed Native Hedging is looking fantastic on the nursery right now, and these photos show exactly why we love it.

Rather than a single-species hedge, CountryHedge combines native plants to create a natural, established hedgerow with different foliage, flowers, berries and seasonal interest.

The Guelder Rose is particularly impressive at the moment, producing masses of bright berries amongst the mixed foliage. ❤️🌿

CountryHedge is grown in 1-metre-wide troughs, giving you an established section of native hedge that’s ready to plant and provides immediate impact.

Available in:

🌱 100–125cm high
🌿 120–150cm high
🌳 140–160cm high

It’s a fantastic choice for garden boundaries, countryside properties and larger landscaping projects where you want a more natural-looking hedge that’s also valuable for wildlife. 🐦🐝

No waiting years for individual whips to grow together. Plant the troughs and you’ve got the beginnings of a mature-looking native hedgerow from day one.

🚚 Available now from Hedging Plants Direct with UK delivery.
