Want different seasonal looks for your garden? That’s easy with the four seasons hedge! The mix consists of six different shrubs. The shrubs bloom in the spring. In the autumn, you will be rewarded with beautiful colours and berries. The shrubs form a colourful hedge. For a dense hedge, we plant three shrubs per metre. This mix contains:

• 1 Tamarisk (Tamarix ramosissima): blossoms with pink flowers in summer
• 1 Border forsythia (Forsythia x intermedia) ’Spectabilis’: blossoms in spring with yellow flowers
• 1 Mock orange (Philadelphus ’Virginal’): blossoms in spring with creamy white, fragrant flowers
• 1 Redflower currant (Ribes sanguineum ’King Edward VII’): blossoms in spring with soft red flowers
• 1 Doorenbos coralberry (Symph. x doorenbosii ’Magic Berry’): blossoms in spring with white flowers in spring, revealing white berries in the autumn
• 1 Guelder rose (Viburnum opulus ’Roseum’): blossoms in spring with white flowers in spring

We deliver the four seasons hedge as bare-root stock: just the six bare branches and roots. The plants are freshly removed from the soil. They are already one to two years old. This gives them additional strength, enabling them to branch out faster than they would in a nursery pot. Plants grown from bare-root stock also adapt to their new environment more easily. They grow better and they're more economical. The hedge should be pruned twice per year. Once in the spring and once in the autumn. For the best results, give the hedge ‘beech and hedge’ food. The hedge will grow in any moist, well-drained soil type. Please ensure that the ground stays moist during the initial period after planting. It's best to give them extra water during dry periods. And they need sufficient light in order to grow well. The hedge grows best in full or half sun.

If you buy deciduous shrubs in autumn they might not be looking quite as beautiful as usual. The big benefit of planting shrubs in autumn is that by spring they will be well rooted in the garden and ready to burst into growth.
