Bone Meal

This is a long lasting, slow release organic fertiliser for newly planted trees and shrubs. It is excellent for helping roots establish.
Bone Meal an organic source of phosphorous and calcium, with some nitrogen and traces of several important minerals.

We always advise a soil test before using fertilisers: bonemeal won't hurt your plants, but if your soil is already high in Phosphorous and Calcium, it may not be necessary.

In general, Bonemeal is always a good thing to mix into the soil at planting time if your soil is poor.
If you have rich soil, then we still recommend it for "working" plants like fruit trees and soft fruit bushes. Most hedging plants and Standard Trees, especially native species, can do without it if you are on a tight budget.

How to use Bone Meal for Planting:
Bone Meal needs to be mixed well into the soil when you plant your trees. Use 140 grammes per square metre (4oz per square yard).

Bone Meal top Dressing for Roses & other Flowering Plants:
In Spring, dust the same amount as above onto the soil surface, then gently rake it in or mulch over it.

Using Bone Meal on Fruit Trees & Bushes:
In Autumn, dust the same amount as above onto the soil surface, then gently rake it in.

It is recommended for use with all the plants that you can buy on our site.

Because couriers sometimes experience delays, we schedule delivery by week, not by day. Therefore, please plan your planting day for the weekend at the end of the delivery week or for the week following delivery, at the earliest.
We will email you the day before your plants are due to arrive.

Payment: We do not charge your card until we begin to prepare your order for packing.

Guarantee: If any plants die within a year, we will replace them. We only ask that you follow our planting & growing instructions and sent us clear photographs of the dead plants in situ, so we can help to make sure that the replacement plants succeed. You only pay for the delivery of the replacements.

Please note that our guarantee is void if there is a hosepipe ban in your area: your newly planted hedging must be watered in dry weather while it is establishing. The best way to water is very thoroughly every few days: at least once a week in summer if there is no heavy rain.

Our nursery has been supplying container grown and bareroot hedging plants to gardeners, farmers and town planners since 1949. Our website started in 2003, so we do understand the concerns that you may have about buying hedging plants online. If any of your plants are damaged when they arrive or if you are otherwise not satisfied with your order after you inspect it, please repackage it and contact us. We will give you a refund or send replacements and send a courier to come and collect the unwanted plants.
