Instant Impact Western Red Cedar
(Thuja plicata 'Atrovirens')

Thuja Plicata's glossy, green foliage can form the ideal evergreen screen for protection against wind and noise, as well as adding that needed length of privacy.

Thuja plicata produces bold sprays of striking foliage, that give off a sweet, pineapple-like scent when crushed between your fingers. It also produces little cones, but these are a little insignificant as most people love Western Red Cedar for its dense, rich leaves.

Thuja plicata 'Atrovirens' Instant Impact hedging is ideal for any garden facing surrounding heavy traffic, as it can superbly absorb pollution particles. You can also consider planting behind small, colourful plants that need a solid background to make them stand out!

You can grow Western Red Cedar in full sun/partial shade/full shade and will grow in any well-drained soil. Even though it is fast-growing, you can still cut back old wood, too, without the risk of the foliage browning (something you cannot do with Leylandii). It's that easy to maintain.

  • Growth height: Fast (40-60cm per year)
  • Ideal height: 2.5m+ Tall
  • Soil type: Normal
  • Exposure: Coastal, exposed, inland
  • Aspect: Semi-shade, full sun
  • Evergreen foliage? Yes

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.̴Ì?

Wester Red Cedar hedging is rather easy to maintain. You will only need to trim it a couple of times annually- once in Spring, and again in Autumn.̴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.

  • Bare Root Discount Deals
