Blackthorn Hedge Plants native bare root hedging sloes - 7 sizes to choose from!
Product Description
Sorry the bare root season has ended until next Autumn - we do have lots of potted plants available now!
This is for our bare root Blackthorn hedge plants (Prunus Spinosa)
Blackthorn is fast growing and will quickly make a hedge on its own,
but is more usually mixed in with other species such as hawthorn or hazel to
make a mixed hedgerow.
Beautiful snowy white flowers cover the plants in early spring
giving way to dense foliage and then purple sloes in Autumn – loved by birds
and perfect for Sloe Gin!
Blackthorn is super spikey making it a great hedge for security and
providing a natural habitat for small creatures.
Blackthorn grows well in most soil types and will tolerate salty
seaside air and high winds in coastal areas.
All you need to do is simply
choose the height of the plants you want to plant now and the number of plants
you need.
We recommend 5 plants per metre in a double zig-zag row for a thick
hedge, but you can get away with 3-4 per metre in a staggered row if you don’t
mind waiting an extra year or two to form a thick hedge.

rate by up to 50% and really helps the plants establish.
Keep them well watered – especially in the Spring and Summer in the
first year of planting.
If you are not sure how many plants you need or which varieties
suit your garden please just contact or call us and we will be happy to offer
friendly advice!
Many
apologies but due to a change in the DEFRA plant health regulations following
Brexit we cannot ship plants to Northern Ireland – we are working on this and
hope a solution is found soon!
