Corylus avellana (Hedging)

A native deciduous plant which is great in a mixed or single species hedge. The season starts with the production of long hanging yellow catkins from the bare branches from around January for a couple of months before the large soft and slight hairy round leaves are formed with a pointed tip. This bushy variety also produces attractive autumn colours as the leaves turn to shades of orange and yellow. Supplied height 45-90cm - in 2 litre pots.British Grown - Our great range of evergreen and deciduous hedging has been grown at our own nursery in Devon. It has all been grown in pots to give maximum flexibility on when it can be planted but most importantly, it can be planted straight away and before the more traditional bare root hedging can even be dug up from the nursery fields. This gives the advantage of it being able to establish itself before the winter, allowing the roots to spread, ready to spring into action and will grow away much faster than an equivalent bare root plant. Depending on the thickness of hedge required, our plants are ideally planted 4 per metre and for the thicker hedge, in double rows, with the second row in the gaps of the first.
