Leylandii is one of the fastest-growing hedging species we have available, growing by a staggering 75cm (2ft 6in) to 90cm (3ft) each year. Its rapid growth is the reason it sometimes receives a bad press. This is only as a result of its failure to be trimmed regularly. Leylandii is a superb choice for a good, windproof hedge affording privacy and lessening noise for surroundings. We have either gold or green Leylandii available and we leave it for you to choose which colour. Leylandii prefers either a sunny or partially shady position. Benefits of using our plug plant trees Our Leylandii hedging trees are sold as containerised 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) and secondly containerised plants have a higher survival rate than bare-root plants. Wholesale Tree Prices We will be more than happy to provide quotations on the supply of quantities of 500 or more trees. Please email us at info@trees-online.co.uk How many Leylandii hedging trees do I need? We recommend planting 2 plants per 1.5 metres (5ft), so this pack of 25 trees will cover 16.7 metres (approx 55ft 6in). This density of hedge planting makes a very effective screen.
Second line of hedging We recommend planting the second line of trees 25cm or 10 inches away from the first if using the staggered hedging approach and to consider buying 10% more than you need. Plant the spares elsewhere and you have immediate replacements for damaged or diseased trees. Mixing orders Some people want to make a small part of their order a different species e.g inserting dog rose every few trees. As we can touch our toes therefore proving we are flexible, we are happy to accommodate.
Please be aware the the urine extractors using the website will have their order refunded. All orders are human approved first and we are paying attention...mostly. Just mention at checkout what you require. For all hedging protection please view the Tree Extra section and if you are looking to plant lots of plug plant or cell grown trees (the 10-40cm-ish) size range then maybe you should consider our tree planting tool. Tree planting rates of over 700 per day achievable. Hedge Growth Rates For information on rates of growth please click "Hedge Growth Rates" Using Bark or wood chip mulch for hedging trees
If you are going to use bark or wood chip as a mulch for hedging trees, please be aware that mice like to use this as a nest/home/holiday treat/rental property for other mice. They like to eat the bark (especially Beech) and you are provided them a place to stay close to a food source. If you are going to use bark or wood chip as a mulch, periodically check for damage especially below the mulch layer. Alternatively use gravel or plastic sheeting as a method of keeping weeds down or you could try the legal route and serve them with a notice of eviction?
