Planting & Care

A robust and enduring deciduous hedge, perfect for supporting a huge variety of local wildlife.
Features deeply lobed, dark green leaves on graceful branches, with spring catkins and autumn acorns.
The foliage provides a stunning autumn display, turning vibrant orange and reddish-brown.
Develops deep tap roots early on, meaning it won't compete for moisture with nearby plants.
Supports more wildlife than any other native UK tree, providing food and shelter for insects, birds, and small mammals.
Acorns provide a vital food source for creatures like deer, squirrels, and badgers.

Species: Oak
Features: Native to UK
Planting Time: January, February, March, October, November, December
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Habit: Bushy Hedge
Eventual Spread: 8m+ unless pruned
Hardiness: Fully hardy (H6 - hardy in all of UK and northern Europe)
Growth Rate: Fast (Expect 40-60cm per year)
Soil Type: Any well drained, fertile soil
Pruning: Prune in late autumn
Pest & Disease: May be affected by powdery mildew, oak gall mite, aphids and caterpillars.

Plant your oak hedge from October to March while the plant is dormant.
It thrives in most conditions but prefers well-drained, loamy soils. If your soil is heavy or sandy, mix in some perlite or fine horticultural grit when planting to improve drainage.
This fast-growing hedge can reach up to 10m but is easily maintained at a height of 1-4m.
Pruning is minimal; simply trim any wayward shoots in late autumn while the plant is dormant.
