Planting trees
When we first moved to the property in the end of summer 2017, there were no trees or garden whatsoever. It has always been one of our targets to plant a lot of trees: firstly to provide our own firewood in years to come, and also to regenerate some of the land that was previously used for cattle farming.
So far we have planted over 300 trees, a lot of those are fruit trees in our orchard and native varieties. We have placed a last small spring order for some trees, and are finally down to planting them.
Thank you for watching,
Alistair & Tania

How to plant Laurel Hedging - Prunus laurocerasus
LAUREL - has survived the last 2 hard winters with little difficulty.
Laurel is an evergreen hedge capable of forming a high dense hedge quickly with a growth rate of about 1.5 FT -- 2 FT per year. It grows well in sun and shade but generally does not grow very well in sea areas. If you live by the sea choose another hedge such as Escallonia, Griselinia or Fuchsia.
Best Time To Plant Laurel Hedge
Laurel come in their own pot so can be planted any time of the year. If you live in a very exposed area, I would suggest using some 'wind break' when planting, to encourage uniform and quicker growth. If you wish to plant Barerool Laurel hedging, see our notes below on Bareroot planting.
How Far Apart To Plant Laurel Hedging
Set them 18 to a maximum of 2 Ft apart in a hole at least twice the depth and twice the width of the pot they come in.
Use either organic or multipurpose compost along with a fertilizer (slow release feed or fish blood & bone) to establish quicker rooting.
Keep the hedge well watered for the first few weeks after planting -- depending on the soil type & weather conditions this may be every second day. Laurel likes moist roots, so it is important to create a rich soil base of humus to retain moisture. Using FYM (farm yard manure) when planting helps retain the moisture at root level.
For easier watering in large areas, you can install what is known as a 'leaky pipe' or lay flat tubing on top of the soil by the roots of the plants. The end of the pipe is blocked & the other end connected to the tap. Over a period of a few hours your hedge is evenly watered. You can also install a timer on the tap to ensure regular watering.
Some people like to mix hedging, but I would opt to grow some trees in with the Laurel for a nice colour mix instead - something like 'Prunus Nigra'. If space is tight use a narrow growing tree such as 'Fagus Sylvatica Atropunicea Fastigiata' or 'Carpinus Fastigiata'.
From the second year on you will need to lightly trim the tops & sides of the hedge to create a solid dense hedge. This can be done with a good seceteurs and 2 light trimmings per year from then on will keep it in great shape. Best time to do this is first cut in April & July -- August for the second one.
Feed the hedge at least once a year with Growmore or Fish Blood & Bone to encourage faster & thicker growth. To speed up growth even further you can use a liquid feed such as Phostrogen or Miracle Grow in Spring and Summer.
Planting A Laurel Hedge - Bareroot
The differences between bare-root and potted hedging are
(a) bare-root hedging can only be planted in dormant season generally Nov -- Feb, whereas potted can be planted 12 months of the year
(b) bare-root is generally cheaper than potted hedging
There are important points to consider when you are planting bare-root hedging
(a) choose a well drained soil as otherwise the roots will rot if the soil is water-logged
(b) The difference between planting now and planting in the spring-time is that the soil is warmer now than it is in the spring-time. This means your hedging will have rooted in over the coming months and come the spring-time it's ready to grow as its roots will have established by then
Transplanting Hedging
Transplanting is the name given to digging up a plant from the soil and planting it again in a different location. This effectively is what happens when bare-rooted hedging is planted. It's important to note that when you buy your bare-root hedging, keeping the roots covered is essential to successful transplanting.
So when you buy your hedging keep the roots covered in a bag to stop them drying out. Then as soon as possible when you take them home either plant them straight away into their final planting location or plant a batch (20-50) of plants together in a bunch in a heap of loose soil to keep the roots moist, then as you want them you can transplant them into their final location.
