For more information on planting distances please see our planting density advice section. As a general rule, smaller pot plants can be planted up to 6 per metre if planted in a double staggered row. Larger pots will require less plants per metre. Really the planting density is down to how long you would wait to see a hedge with the required fullness. If you want to a fuller hedge in a shorter time, you would plant at the higher density per metre.

Osmanthus Burkwoodii is best pruned in late Winter or Early spring. Although slow growing it should be pruned yearly being sure to remove any dead branches.
