A high-quality mixed native hedging pack designed to deliver dense, year-round privacy with a refined, traditional appearance. Built around a Beech (Fagus sylvatica) base, this hedge is ideal for garden boundaries, rural properties, paddocks, and field edges where reliable screening and visual appeal are important.
Beech is one of the UK’s most popular hedging plants, valued for its ability to retain dry copper-coloured leaves through winter, maintaining privacy when most hedges thin out. Combined with a carefully selected mix of native species, this pack offers strong structure, wildlife value, and seasonal interest.
All plants are supplied as 40–60 cm bare root saplings, suitable for planting between November and April.
