The Holly (llex Aquifolium) is a slow growing evergreen hedge, so needs little maintenance. Its dense form & prickly leaves are good intruder deterrent. It is in leaf all year, in flower from May to June, & the seeds ripen from November to March.

This RHS Premium Cell Grown Common Oak (Quercus Robur) Native hedge comes with the benefits of container grown plants but the price is nearer the bare root price.

This means that they will become more established quicker than bare root. They can also be planted into warm soils when roots are active, outside the dormant period. Whereas the bare root season ends between April to September, September, October, March April & May are ideal months for planting cell grown plants. In fact, unlike bare root, you can plant cell grown plants throughout the year as long as the roots are kept moist. That is why 60% of the world s forestry trees are now cell grown! ...
