Bare Root Common Whitebeam Bundle 40/60cm x 50
(Sorbus Aria)

Sorbus aria is rather upright when its young but will grow rather large 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.̴Ì?

Make sure you plant your Whitebeam hedging as soon as possible after being delivered, as the roots are tender and cannot be left to dry out.

These 40/60cm bare root Common Whitebeam plants are fast-growing and can reach up to 12m high in good conditions.

We do recommend adding some mulch and feed, however, after pruning. This will maintain overall health.
