Soils
Generally native mixtures will adapt to most soil types. However, some sites may require a carefully selected mixture to suit.
Native mix hedges are one of the most beautiful hedges that can be created. Native hedges are and can be successfully planted in fields, paddocks and gardens all across the United Kingdom. These hedges are made by planting together, side by side mixtures of native fruiting and flowering plants. These hedges provide valuable food and protection to our native birds and a hidden world of small creatures and wildlife. As well as being beneficial to our wildlife, for us humans as spring arrives, the native hedge bursts into life creating truly beautiful hedges with visual interest right through to the end of autumn. Producing flowers, catkins, seeds, fruits and nuts.
