Any advice appreciated .
thanks in advance,



you don't say how long a hedge you are looking for, i take it a goodly
number?

. Better than a garden centre, find a local nursery or trade supplier
who will be haapy to deal with you direct - far cheaper and bettter
qaulaity than plans that hve been sitting in the GC with inadeqaute
TLC. Retail mark up is 100% on the pre vat ex nursery price, os there
is a big saving to be made if you take the time to seasch out the
right supplier.


And wait a while for the bare root stock to come in, much cheaper than
potted / container grown.





ISTBCB, bare root holly is not nomally availble
