Further Information
Prices shown are the price per plant. Planting distances are very much a matter of choice - for bare roots, 3 plants per metre is adequate, 5 is good, 7 in a double staggered row will give a dense hedge quicker. Cell grown should be planted at 4 per metre in a single row or ideally 6 per metre in a staggered row.
For more information on planting distances please see our planting density advice section.

White Ramanus Rose
Rosa rugosa 'Alba' will add colour and wildlife interest into a mixed hedge, or for its prickly deterrent quality. It has richly scented, large open single flowers from June to September, followed by the largest hip of any wild rose - as large as a cherry tomato! For an alternative with pink flowers, try Rosa rugosa 'Rubra'.
The leaves are lush, glossy, dark green and crinkly (technical term is rugose) and downy underneath. The plant grows very densely with new growth coming from below ground level but true to the parent.
It has to be said that Rosa rugosa has a shaggy unkempt air though it can be trimmed to a degree of tidiness. It's carefree too in its soil and situation preferences - it's picky only about drainage - so as long as it doesn't sit in waterlogged soil, it will grow in any situation with particular preferences for some sun and sandy soils. It is good for coastal positions and is sometimes called the Saltspray Rose. One final bonus - rabbits dont like it!
For further flowering varieties, have look at our brilliant range of flowering hedge plants or view our prickly hedging plants and our hedges with berries for a number of brilliant alternatives.
Cell grown plants are available all year round. Bare roots are only available from November to mid/late May, using cold stored plants towards the very end of the season.
