Dog Rose (Rosa canina) is a very familiar sight across Britain.  A native, British hedging species, this rose is very hardy and tolerant of most soils, excepting those which are very wet.  Noted for its attractive pink flowers in late spring and bright-red rose hips in autumn.  Dog Rose is quite a fast-growing, putting on an average growth per year of up to 60cm (2ft).  This rose is ideal for forming a dense screen.  Quite commonly, Dog Rose forms part of a native hedging mixture, along with Hawthorn , Blackthorn, Hazel, Elder and Crab Apple

Benefits of using our plug plant trees

Our Dog Rose hedging trees are sold as plug plants, in other words the roots are encased in compost. This means that planting can be carried out at any time of the year, provided they are watered in periods of drought, compared to bare-root plants which can only be planted during the plants normal dormant period (November to March).  All of these trees are UK grown, which is important for successful establishment. 

How many Dog Rose hedging trees do I need?

We recommend planting 6 plants per metre using the double staggered hedge method.

Delivery
Due to courier unpredictability, we advise having your trees delivered AT LEAST 3 days before you actually need them. 

Returning Cell Grown Trees
For Phytosanitary reasons, cell-grown trees cannot be returned to the nursery. 


Delaying Planting Cell Grown Trees
If you cannot plant straight away, take the trees out of the packaging and stand upright next to each other in a sheltered location outside. November to March, no need to water unless they start to dry out and these would be ok for up to 6 weeks. During Spring and Summer, you can do this for up to 3 weeks. 

Site Conditions And Evergreen Tree List
Our tree chart details which site conditions suit which trees and also which are evergreen or semi-evergreen.

Feeding Or Fertilizing Hedges
Any nitrogen based fertilizer will do such as 20:20:10 but the longer lasting ones which take 18/24 months are better as they are regulated by the weather and moisture therefore release slowly. 

Second line of hedging or staggered row 
We recommend planting the second line of trees 25cm or 10 inches away from the first if using the staggered hedging approach. Consider buying 10% more than you need and plant the spares elsewhere so you have immediate replacements for damaged or diseased trees.

Hedge Protection
For all hedging protection please view the Tree Extra section.

You would think that thorny plants would put rabbits off from eating them however this is not the case. They are happy to take the pain regardless of the cost (sounds like rabbits would be suited to marriage) 

Hedge Growth Rates
For information on rates of growth please click "Hedge Growth Rates"

Using Bark or wood chip mulch for hedging trees
Mice like to use this as a nest/home/holiday retreat and they eat the bark (especially Beech). Periodically check for damage below the mulch or bark layer. Alternatively use gravel or plastic sheeting as a method of keeping weeds.

Adding Fragrance And Colour To Your Hedge.
Honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum) is a very popular addition to any garden due to the strong fragrance, splash of colours and interest it generates from other wildlife. Click the link to find out more.

Coastal Planting
Trees suitable for coastal hedging include Aspen, Hawthorn, Holly, Juniper, Rowan, Whitebeam and Willows
.

Factors Detrimental To Cell Grown/Young Hedging Trees
Too much/little water, animal Urine, excessive wind exposure (will slow growth), salt spray, frost on new growth, herbicide drift and over application of fertilizer.

Hedge Tree Growing In The UK
We have instructed all our hedging trees that no non-UK holidays are allowed so that we can state they are all UK grown. 

Planting In The Corner Of A Garden
Air and light is reduced in this location which could promote fungus and bacterial issues. If the corner is of the house and a fence then you also have leeching issues to contend with from cement and wood preservatives. Also when it rains, that area would experience higher water levels so we advise against it unless the plant is very hardy.

Disclaimer

White flowered apple rose (Rosa rugosa alba) is grown from seed collected from white-flowering apple rose bushes.  Even though we do this, sometimes the resulting apple rose flowers may be a mixture of white and pink flowers.  This is entirely unpredictable and the reason for this is genetic as one of the parent bushes for white flowering apple rose is the pink flowering apple rose.  We at trees-online are not therefore not liable should a mixture of flower colours appear.
