Spindle hedging is generally known for its bright shades of pink, orange, deep-green, and crimson-red- all of which are displayed during Autumn. Its orange fruits will stay nice right through the winter months, even when the leaves have fallen off. Aside from these times, the bush will showcase a twiggy nature with dark-green leaves.̴Ì?

By Summer, Spindle hedging will also bloom delicate, pink flowers, that are high in nectar- making them very popular with the insects!̴Ì?

Please note the leaves and fruits of Euonymus europaeus are not edible.̴Ì?

Your bare root plant must be planted as soon as possible after being delivered. You cannot leave for any longer than a couple of days (in which the roots must stay moist during this time).

This 40/60cm bare root spindle plant has an average growth rate but can exceed 4m tall when planted in good conditions!

Though Spindle hedging can tolerate partial shade, it will always do best in a sunny spot. With its average growth rate, it can reach up to 4m high.
  • Growth rate: Average (20-40cm per year)
  • Ideal height: 4m+ Tall
  • Soil type: Normal
  • Exposure: Inland, exposed, sheltered, coastal
  • Aspect: Full sun, semi-shade

As soon as your Spindle hedging arrives, place it straight into a bucket of water for at least 2 hours. This will ensure the roots are moist when planted.̴Ì?

Continue to water regularly until well-established- though it cannot become waterlogged.̴Ì?

Only prune Spindle hedging through late Winter- early Spring. You cannot trim any of the healthy growth. Just remove any dead, diseased, or damaged woods.̴Ì?

In order to give it a strong boost and promote new growth, we highly recommend applying some mulch to the soil and giving the plant a feed.̴Ì?

Root Types Summary

  • Bare Root
    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

    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
    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 Hedging
    Instant Hedging

    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.
