Native Farm Hedging Mix – Bare Root 60–90 cm, Bulk Pack of 1,000
Establish a living countryside boundary with this native farm hedging mix, supplied as 1,000 bare-root plants at approximately 60–90 cm. Combining hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna) and blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) with other native hedgerow species, this bulk pack is a practical choice for farmers, trade buyers and landscape contractors planting field margins, restoring hedgerows or creating substantial garden boundaries. The 60–90 cm grade provides a taller starting plant than the 40–60 cm option; it does not indicate a different mature hedge height.
Why Choose a Mixed Native Hedge?
- Traditional countryside character: hawthorn and blackthorn form the foundation of a varied native boundary.
- Wildlife value: seasonal flowers and fruits provide feeding opportunities, while established branching growth offers shelter.
- Seasonal interest: mixed foliage, blossom and autumn fruits bring changing texture and colour.
- Bulk planting: a pack of 1,000 plants suits larger farm and landscape schemes.
What Is Supplied?
One bulk pack of 1,000 native farm hedging plants, supplied bare root at approximately 60–90 cm. This is the supplied plant height, not the mature height of the hedge. Plants vary naturally in shape and size.
The mix includes hawthorn and blackthorn alongside other native species. Confirm the complete species list and proportions with treesandplantsuk before ordering where your planting plan requires an exact composition. No fixed species percentages are stated here.
Growth Habit
This deciduous mix develops a branching framework with fresh spring foliage, seasonal blossom and autumn fruits. Mature height, width and density depend on the species composition, growing conditions and pruning regime. Formative pruning and continued management help create a well-branched boundary suited to its location.
Soil and Site Suitability
Choose a sunny or partially shaded position with moisture-retentive, freely draining soil. Prepare the planting strip thoroughly, remove competing vegetation and address compaction before planting. For persistently waterlogged ground or particularly exposed sites, confirm the suitability of the full species mix before purchase.
Wildlife and Ecological Value
Mixed native hedgerows can connect habitats along field margins and provide cover within larger gardens. Hawthorn and blackthorn blossom offers forage for pollinating insects, while haws and sloes provide seasonal food for birds and other wildlife. As the hedge establishes, its branching structure creates shelter and potential nesting sites.
Planting and Establishment
Plant bare-root hedging during the dormant season when soil conditions allow, avoiding frozen or waterlogged ground. Keep roots moist and sheltered from drying winds until planting.
- Clear grass and weeds from the planting strip and prepare enough space to spread the roots naturally.
- Plant at the original nursery soil level, firm gently and water thoroughly.
- Choose spacing and single- or double-row arrangements to match the intended hedge density and project specification.
- Keep the base free of competing vegetation and maintain moisture during dry spells through the first growing seasons.
- Provide suitable protection where rabbits, deer or livestock could damage young plants.
The length of hedge covered by this 1,000-plant pack depends on the chosen spacing and row arrangement. Confirm your planting density before calculating the quantity required.
Planning a Stewardship Hedgerow?
For stewardship planting, check the confirmed species composition, proportions, supplied plant specification and planting density against your specific agreement before ordering. The product name alone does not establish eligibility for BN7, BN11 or any other scheme.
