Dogwood Hedging 60-80cm Bare Root
Pre-order information
This is a seasonal product that can only be dug from our production fields when the tree/plant has gone dormant and the temperatures are correct. We are expecting this item to be available from mid October 2025.
Sold in bundles of 25, Dogwood (Cornus sanguinea), or Common Dogwood, is an affordable way to plant a native hedge. These 60-80cm tall, bare-root plants are dug straight from the field and should be planted immediately to avoid root damage.
Key Benefits:
-
Attractive Winter Bark: Known for its striking red bark, especially on newer growth, Dogwood adds color to your hedge in the winter months when most hedges are dormant.
-
Seasonal Foliage: Green leaves turn rich crimson in autumn, creating a vibrant display.
-
Native & Hardy: A popular choice in UK hedgerows, Dogwood thrives when planted alongside other species like Hawthorn, Field Maple, and Dog Rose.
-
Wildlife-Friendly: Supports local wildlife, including birds and insects, when part of a mixed-species hedge.
Planting & Care:
-
Spacing: Plant 45cm apart in a single row or 60cm apart in a double row for a denser hedge.
