Thompson and Morgan Green Fagus Sylvatica Beech Hedge Bare Root 10 Pack

Bring vibrant greenery and natural privacy to your garden with the Thompson and Morgan Green Fagus Sylvatica Beech Hedge Bare Root 10 Pack, offering a dense leafy screen that’s easy to shape and maintain, creating a tranquil boundary that supports wildlife and filters noise. Semi-evergreen foliage stays through winter, turning brown before fresh spring growth, and the hardy bare root plants adapt to sun or shade and a wide range of soils, making them perfect for formal or wildlife gardens. With minimal care, you’ll enjoy year-round coverage and a reliable habitat for birds and insects, while the lush beech hedge enhances your outdoor space with lasting beauty and practicality. Plant beech hedging in fertile, well-drained soil. Fagus hedging is suitable for positions in full sun or partial shade. Plants will tolerate a wide range of soils, from sand to chalk and clay, and areas of pollution. Plant bare root hedging as soon as possible after delivery. Before planting, incorporate plenty of well-rotted manure into the planting area. Dig a hole deep enough to fit the length of the roots and position one plant in each hole, then firm back down. For hedgerow planting, position the plants around 45cm apart. Water in thoroughly after planting and keep well watered until established. In areas where rabbits can be a problem, it’s worthwhile to place rabbit guards on your plants. Clip your hedging plants regularly to encourage them to bush out. Water regularly until established. Apply a mulch of well-rotted manure or compost along the base of the hedge to provide winter protection when young. Beech should be clipped to shape in summer to encourage dense, bushy growth.
