Instant Hedging | Trough Grown Hedging
Instant hedging (often called trough-grown hedging) is increasingly popular and now available in a wide range of hedging plant species, including Privet, Beech, Hornbeam, Yew, Photinia, Box, Cherry Laurel, Portuguese Laurel, and several additional species shown below. The troughs they are grown in vary—some are rigid plastic, some are flexible bags, and we have various heights available in many species to give a range of options.
These really are impactful solutions for those looking for an instant hedging solution. You simply dig a trench (we can tell you the depth and width depending on the troughs you buy) and then pop the whole linear metre of hedging into the trough and backfill. It's very easy for two people to lay long stretches of instant hedging in a few hours.
Instant hedging troughs are ideal for a range of uses—many property developers regularly buy from us to give their new houses an established hedge, and homeowners replace old hedges with new ones without waiting for privacy to be regained.
Whatever your requirements, please feel free to contact us on 01695 280945 to discuss. If instant hedging is a stretch too far for your budget, our mature root balls, tall pot-grown plants, or tall bare root plants are also worth considering—not quite instant hedging, but nearly!
We have an advice page on Instant Hedging and a blog page with everything you need to know.
