Tree and shrub planting

Our suppliers grow the trees that we require, and we select the best species for the site, soil, and location.

Our planting can often involve large and complex machinery – such as cranes working in very tight and constricted environments – when we are installing semi-mature stock.

Our shrub planting service concentrates on container material, and we can supply and plant shrubs of all sizes from 1-litre pots to instant hedges up to 3 metres tall. We also supply a full after-care service to ensure that all the plants are cared for in their first year and beyond.

Tree and shrub transplanting

We will undertake this service for clients using hand-dig techniques. We will evaluate the suitability of plants for this process and advise accordingly.
