    Hi there appilihp, yes I have a variety of native hedging, hawthorn, blackthorn, sea buckthorn, green beech, rosa rugosa, dog rose, june berry, berberis plus a few more. All are well suited to our wild weather. Most produce blossom followed by berries for wild life and provide a good thorny thick environment for shelter and possible nesting. I would recommend planting between 3 and 5 per meter, and where possible a slightly staggered hedge will grow good and thick. All bare root will be ready around 7/8th Feb, approx. 40-60cm and priced between £1.45 and £1.80. Hope this is helpful, thanks for now
