Hypericum Hedge Plant Description

Hypericum is often known by its common name, St John's Wort, particularly in relation to its herbal properties. Whilst Hypericum is an attractive ornamental plant, it is also often categorized as a semi-green, evergreen plant, due to losing some foliage during colder winter days.

Hypericum Hidcote (St John's Wort) produces stunning , five-petalled, yellow flowers that are large and vibrant, infusing your garden with sunny summer colour and making a very attractive feature. Hypericum Hidcote flowers tend to blossom from May to August and are also popular amongst local pollinating wildlife, including bees and butterflies.

Hypericum can grow in shaded conditions, but it develops and blossoms better where there is sunlight. This hedge plant is suitable for any well-drained soil and will thrive in coastal gardens. Take a look at our available plants for exposed sites on our website, for more information and inspiration.

Hypericum is available all year round.

Further Information
Further Information

You’ll see our recommended planting densities for each size and root type listed in the product grid. We suggest that you use these as a guide, taking into consideration how long you’re willing to wait to see your finished hedge. As a rough indication bare roots can be planted at anything from 3 to 7 per metre and cell grown between 4 and 6 - the higher densities here would need to be planted in a double staggered row or zig-zag.

For more information on planting distances please see our planting density advice section.

Pruning Advice
Pruning Advice

Pruning a St John’s Wort (Hypericum) can vary depending on the species you’re growing. ‘Hidcote’ should be pruned in the Spring, removing any weak, old or thin growth. Shorten the remaining stems back to the base or to strong shoots. Always make your cut just above a bud. If your plant has got out of hand you can prune all the stems to ground level now.
