  Bare Root Plants 

 

Many deciduous shrubs, trees, and hedging plants, along with some evergreens, are available as bare root plants during the dormancy period between November and March. The roots will quietly establish below ground during the winter, ready to fuel a fabulous display of flowers and foliage once the soil warms up in the spring. Benefits of bare root plants include: they are better valued for money for any given height and size of the plant compared to their containerised counterparts; they tend to establish more quickly because a larger surface area of the roots is in direct contact with the soil, and they are more environmentally friendly (not supplied in plastic pots).

Bare root trees, shrubs and hedging are a great way to create a long hedge or fill a big space in the garden at a fraction of the cost of the same plants in containers. Some plants in the categories below may be found in more than one category. This is because quite a few plants are multi functional: for example, beech, hornbeam, field maple, and willow to name a few can be naturally found as a native hedge or as trees.

 

Bare Root Plant Packs

We have bare root plant packs available in packs on 10, 20 and 30 plants, depending on the size of your garden and how much space you have to fill. These packs are perfect if you have some gaps in the border or are looking for a cost-effective fast-track way to start planting up a new garden. Packs of 10 and 20 mainly contain small to medium sized shrubs, ideal for small-mid sized gardens with the pack of 30 containing a few trees that will appreciate a little more space. Plants in the packs have been carefully selected by our nursery manager and incorporate a wide variety of features including rich foliage colours, striking flowers, attractive berries, gorgeous scents and vibrant bark. Packs are a great way to make your garden look stunning at a great price.

We've put together a collection of guides to take the mystery out of bare root plants, persuade budding gardeners that they could be a good choice (value for money, speed of establishment and being environmentally friendly are just a few of the benefits) and encourage more gardeners to choose to buy bare root.
