Ceanothus Hedge Plants Description

Native to North America, a Ceanothus hedge will bring a splash of colour to your garden - when it is not in flower, its striking dark green foliage will offer year-round cover. Ceanothus hedging is best suited to fertile, well-drained soils, and this easy-to-maintain shrub can be expected to grow between 20 - 40cm per year.

Ceanothus is known for its wide spreading habit, so it will need to be positioned to allow for growth. It looks particularly effective trained against a wall, in a sheltered, sunny position to ensure best growth, making sure to keep it protected from strong, cold winds, which can harm the plant.

Ceanothus hedge plants are available all year round. If you'd like to take a look at similar species, Hedges Direct has a wide range of flowering hedge plants that are sure to bring beauty and privacy to your home.

Further Information
Further Information

You’ll see our recommended planting densities for each pot size listed next to the products opposite. We suggest that you use these as a guide, taking into consideration how long you’re willing to wait to see your finished hedge. For pot grown plants as in the case of our range of Ceanothus, for 2 litre pots a good planting density is 3 per metre but you can plant as few as 1 per metre and you can fit in 5 (in a double staggered row) for a quickly established hedge. For the 5 litre pots - a good density is 2 per metre but 1 is perfectly acceptable or 3 if staggered in a double row.

For other pot sizes, just use the above guide to estimate or phone us for advice. It's worth bearing in mind, particularly for tall expensive plants, that you don't need to stick to an exact number. There's nothing wrong with planting 1.5 per metre (2 plants every 3m) if you can't decide between 1 or 2 plants per metre.

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

Pruning Advice
Pruning Advice

Ceanothus hedge trimming can be done in Spring. Trim the growth from the previous season between a third and a half of the growth in order to encourage flowering but keep the hedge at a manageable level.
