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
Hornbeam is similar to Beech in its pruning needs and should be trimmed once annually in late summer. This not only helps maintain its structure but also ensures it keeps its autumn leaves though winter, giving your garden privacy and colour.
Carry out usual maintenance pruning to remove dead, diseased, or dying wood and try to stay clear of touching any new growth.
