Dutch nursery's pre-planted hedging on the up

Specialist Dutch tree nursery Boomkwekerij E. de Jong has reported growing sales of its ‘Royal Hedge’ range of pre-planted hedging.

 

In summer 2015, it included grasses in the range for the first time. Available in planted bags from 50cm long, they can be used to create a colourful garden screen or balcony feature.

 

‘Royal Hedge’ plantings of taxus and Prunus lusitanica are currently popular in this category. Fagus and carpinus are also available in the same format.

 

You can also use this Royal Hedge on your balcony. Place the beautiful flowering Royal Hedge in a planter and you have a wonderful decoration on your balcony or terrace.

 

You can see the nursery’s full range of plant material at the annual IPM Essen show in January 2018.
