Default Beech hedge


I have bought some beech hedging that is already well into leaf. Trouble
is, it's bundled into 5 plants with tape and the roots, although in
compost, are all mixed up with each other.

the question is, is it to late to pull them out of this bundle and plant
them up singly as a hedge, or do I have to wait until autumn?

Thanks for your help

providing you plant them into a trench with lots of compost plus keep them
well watered they should be fine
