Pleached Trees

Pleached Trees

If you're looking for an attractive, low-maintenance way to add some screening to your property, pleached trees may be the perfect solution. Pleached trees are grown in a special way on bamboo frames, with the branches trained to grow together and form a single canopy shape.

This gives you a beautiful, sculpted tree on a frame with all year round interest that requires very little maintenance, great for creating privacy screening or windbreaks.

Choose from our range of evergreen and deciduous pleached tree species.

Box Hedge Alternatives

Box Hedge Alternatives

Box hedges have been a common feature in UK gardens for centuries. However in recent years, we’ve seen an increase in the pests and diseases that can decimate box hedging in as little as a few days.

Our alternative hedging species have all of the qualities that make buxus hedges so special. They are small leaved, evergreen plants that are happy to be trimmed and shaped 2 or 3 times a year.

If your garden is threatened by box blight or box caterpillar, take a look at these alternatives to box hedging, UK grown and available all year round.
