How Many Hedging Plants will I need?
Here at Crowders we suggest each plant should be 12-18 inches/30-45cm apart in a single row which works out at 3 per meter. If you require a thicker hedge you would require 5 plants per meter which you would plant staggered, 12-18 inches/30-45cm apart.
Which Size hedging Plant Do I Buy?
Bare root hedging plants are measured by their height in centimetres from the ground and are approximate.
