Bare root plants are carefully lifted straight from the field and supplied without soil around their roots. This soil free, container free approach makes them the most cost-effective option for planting. From November through March, we offer an extensive selection of native hedging plants, and for those looking to make a bigger impact, we also provide a variety of larger, native bare root trees!
Please note that these plants are available only while stocks last and can only be lifted during their dormancy period, which typically runs until March.
1. Common alder (Alnus glutinosa): Bare root 8-10cm girth
A fast growing, medium to large deciduous tree with glossy green leaves, yellow catkins in spring, brown cone-like fruits in autumn. This tree tolerates poorly-drained soils and wetter areas, making it ideal for lakeside and riverside locations.
2. Rowan/Mountain ash (Sorbus aucuparia): Bare root 8-10cm girth
Rowan is a fast-growing, medium-sized, deciduous tree with airy green leaves, spring clusters of white flowers, bright red autumn berries. It also has a rounded crown, and it’s ideal for gardens and landscapes.
3. Large-leaved lime (Tilia platyphyllos): Bare root 8-10cm girth
This large, fast-growing, deciduous tree has heart-shaped leaves, creamy-yellow summer flowers and a tolerance for air pollution. This makes it ideal for gardens, parks and woodlands.
