Hedge Irrigation
Our array of hedge watering solutions simplifies the task of caring for your hedge. Ranging from manual setups to fully automated systems, our offerings are adaptable to each hedge's unique requirements. We offer customisable pipe options, connectors, filters, and control valves, acknowledging the distinctiveness of every hedge. Should a water source be distant, we provide black non-drip pipe to extend the reach of your tap.
Compost & Mulch
For an optimal beginning for your freshly planted hedges, we provide eco-conscious hedge compost and mulch. These items, crafted on our own nursery and utilised by our installation crews, guarantee the finest commencement for your new hedging plants.
Our Available Trees Include:
Pleached Trees
If you're seeking an appealing and effortless method to introduce screening to your property, pleached trees could be the ideal answer. These trees are cultivated uniquely on bamboo frameworks, guiding branches to fuse and create a unified canopy shape. This results in an elegant, sculpted tree atop a frame, ensuring year-round allure with minimal upkeep. An excellent choice for privacy screening and wind protection. Select from our assortment of evergreen and deciduous pleached tree varieties.
Ornamental Trees
Beyond cultivating and retailing hedges from our Essex-based nursery, we boast an extensive selection of Ornamental trees. This includes both deciduous and evergreen varieties, with the convenience of nationwide delivery. Our Ornamental Trees serve a dual role, offering both screening capabilities and an infusion of style and seasonal intrigue. They showcase captivating foliage hues, splendid spring and winter blooms, and intriguing bark textures. These trees, distinct from fruit-bearing ones, hold immense appeal for diverse garden aesthetics. Our container-grown Ornamental trees are accessible throughout the year, whereas our rootballed options are exclusively available from October to March.
Espalier Trees
Espalier represents a variation of pleaching, characterized by a more expansive structure compared to the typical suspended screen approach. In espalier, tree branches are extended horizontally in a fan-like manner, often seen with Lime and fruit trees.
In the beginning of 2010, we introduced Hedging Plants Direct, which is currently in its twelfth season of offering top-notch hedging to both retail and wholesale customers through direct delivery. We remain accessible seven days a week throughout the entire year, so don't hesitate to contact us at 01206 804 732 or via email at info@hedgingplantsdirect.co.uk.
We anticipate the opportunity to connect with you and engage in conversations regarding your planting and landscaping requirements.
