How is the height of the hedge plants measured?

The height of the hedge plants is measured from the top of the root ball to the top of the plant (that means without the root ball).

When is the best time to plant a hedge?

Many people plant their hedges in spring; however, the best time for planting is in early October. Grow from October until spring when it is not freezing. This allows the roots to grow before summer and establish more quickly.

Is it necessary to remove the cloth of the root ball?

We use a cloth to protect the roots of the plants. You don’t need to remove this cloth when planting. It will slowly rot away as the plant grows.
