Common Whitebeam hedging is a medium-sized, deciduous type, with promising, oval, deep-green coloured foliage and large clusters of white flowers in spring.
Sorbus Aria grows rather upright when its young but will grow big and wide as it matures (up to 12m high!).̴Ì?
Its leaves have distinct white undersides that compliment the green perfectly, and even more so when the lovely, white flowers appear in clusters during spring- these soon produce bright red berries during Autumn.
It is best to plant Common Whitebeam hedging in chalk, clay, loam, or sand based soil, that is moist and well-draining.
Prune your Common Whitebeam hedging near the end of Winter or beginning of Spring. All you will need to do is remove any diseased, dead, crossing, damaged, or congested shoots- those that are growing out of the desired shape can also be pruned out. You will not need to carry out a regular pruning routine.
We do recommend adding some mulch and feed, however, after pruning. This will maintain overall health.

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 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.
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.
Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
Our bare root discount deals include bundles of 50, 100, and 250 plants. The bigger the bundle, the higher the discount.
