Native Hedge Mixes

We recommend the mixes listed below for a wide range of soils and aspects, and for their benefit to a wide range of wildlife. Buying a mix of native plants for a hedge will enhance its value, both to biodiversity and to you, giving you all year round interest and colour. Using one of our mixes is also a relatively cheap way of buying hedging plants, and will create a traditional hedge appropriate for laying.
