Native Hedge Choices
A gardening friend has told us about the best place in North Norfolk to get bare root hedge plants from, and that is Felthorpe Forest Nursery, NR10 4DF. Tel: 01603 754553. Their plants are in sizes from 30/40cm to 90/120cm.
It has also been recommended to hard-prune the new bare roots, to encourage growth nearer the base.
This is our list of preferred native hedging:
Deciduous
- Hornbeam
- Hazel (Corylus Avellona)
- Beech (Fagus Sylvatica)
- Copper Beech (Fagus Sylvatica Purpurea)
