How to Plant Hedgerows or Windbreaks

Leave enough room for specimens to reach their mature height and spread. If you'll be planting a single tree as an accent, it's wise to plan for the largest number listed on the Plant Highlights.

For a solid hedgerow, you'll want the canopies to grow together and touch. Remember that plants grow out on either side of the trunk.

Plant fast-growing trees, like Theves Poplar, about 8 to 10 feet apart. Measure from trunk to trunk with on center planting.

Achieve a faster hedge with these tips:

• Always buy the largest container size we have in stock, as these are older trees with larger root systems. You'll still measure from trunk to trunk on center, but bigger plants give you a more immediate visual fill.
• Always use Nature Hills Root Booster during planting. This time-tested symbiotic formula really makes a big impact over the entire life of your new trees.
• Consider using a staggered, zigzagging planting pattern. You'll certainly appreciate the lush, natural look as they reach full size.
