Coastal hedging plants
A range of varieties, especially selected for their ability to thrive in exposed situations, with strong drying winds and salt spray. Not only are they perfect for seaside locations, but for any cold, exposed or windy site, where they will provide low windbreaks, cover for wildlife and hardy privacy hedges.
This category includes some vareities which naturally prefer sandy, well-drained soil such as Hippophae (Sea Buckthorn), but also some which are so tough they will grow just about anywhere (Rosa rugosa, Hawthorn).
Plant size:
Once you have selected the plant you are interested in, you will see that we offer several sizes - and give not only the height of the plant but also the age. Those marked "1/1" are two year old plants, and for some varieties we are able to offer older three year old plants -marked "1/2". You may be able to find plants offered for sale online which are the same height, but they can just be 1 year old plants which have been raised from seed. Our plants are grown on to ensure they have an excellent root system, so they establish quickly and give your hedge the best possible start. You may be able to buy cheaper, but we don't think you can buy better!
