Privet hedging is a very popular, semi-evergreen species. It is mainly evergreen but may lose some (or all) of its leaves when faced with severe winter conditions.
Most known for their rich green, oval shaped leaves, Privet plants produce tonnes of white, summer flowers, that attract lots of bees and butterflies. The flowers will provide a beautiful feature in July/August, and the berries attract many species of birds, adding a wonderful aspect of wildlife to your garden throughout the year!
With its dense foliage, Privet Instant Impact Hedging can easily act as a privacy and protection barrier against pollution, meaning it's ideal for both urban and suburban gardens.
Being a relatively fast grower, Privet hedging can grow above 2.5m high. It will grow well in most sites, except wet, and will even tolerate coastal situations (though you are likely to see some defoliation during Winter if done so).
Buying instant impact makes it even easier- your plant will arrive on your doorstep fully matured, established, and ready to plant! All the beginning hard work has been done for you- you don't even have to worry about the No. per metre. 1 instant impact trough = 1 metre of hedging.
You should prune your Privet hedging twice a year to maintain its shape- once in June, and again in September. Only prune at these times as you do not want to remove any new growing shoots.

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.
