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

Hebe Sutherlandii should be pruned in the growing season - or right at the end of the Winter dormancy period. They should not be pruned in late Autumn - nor Winter months.

Hebe 'Sutherlandii' Hedge Plants Description

Hebe Sutherlandii is a hardy, compact evergreen shrub that is perfect for an informal flowering hedge. The pretty, small-leaved, grey-green foliage and contrasting purple stems are offset by attractive white blooms. It flowers profusely with long tapered flower spikes from late summer, throughout autumn and often into early winter.

Classed as a dwarf variety of Hebe growing to only around 45cm in height, Hebe 'Sutherlandii' is perfect for low hedging and smaller outdoor spaces. It is very tolerant of salt laden air so is an ideal planting option for coastal gardens. It is also very pollution tolerant making it an excellent choice for urban gardens too, particularly where space may be limited.

Hebe 'Sutherlandii' prefers a sunny situation and moist well drained soil and benefits from being protected from fierce winter winds. It is initially fast growing so it quickly reaches its maximum height and then becomes very low maintenance. Hebe 'Sutherlandii' prefers to be neatened up into a series of mounds or a rounded hedge rather than have hard edges imposed on it but is easy to trim and keep to shape.

What are root types?

Root types explained.

Bare root
Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.
Pot grown
Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.
Root ball
Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.
Instant
Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hedging troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
