Hedging & Windbreak

Hedging & Windbreak

Many varieties of willow are fast growing and will quickly establish to provide a substantial screen or hedge. They are easy to grow and can offer protection from the wind to delicate plants, shelter and shade to animals, and will screen unsightly areas from view. Some varieties will grow up to 9 feet (3 meters) in their first year and will exceed this after pollarding in subsequent years.

We have chosen some of our most vigorous varieties for this collection (don't plant these near any buildings!) as well as including those we think have the best shape to form an attractive hedge.
