Yes... bare root pence per stick instead of pounds per pot. Leaves do as
you've been told and stay on all winter looking very bright in the low,
red sun of winter mornings and evenings. After a season there will be very
little difference between 2 year container or 1 year bare root.

cheers - cheaper option it is then.

your description sounds lovely. can't wait to get this hedge in and for a
bit of height to catch the glow of the sunset.
