I want to plant a Stilted hedge to provide a screen, how do I decide how many trees I need?
The number of trees that you require will vary depending upon the type of tree you go for and also the effect that you wish to create.
Are you happy to wait a couple of seasons for complete cover? If so, spacing the trees between 1.5 and 2.0m centres would be adequate.
If you want an immediate screen, spacing would need to be between 1.2m and 1.5m centres.
This is a simply a guide for planning purposes, it is advisable to further discuss your requirements with a member of the Barcham Trees Sales Team.
