Transform your seaside garden with our selection of coastal hedging plants at best4hedging, designed to thrive in challenging coastal conditions. Our collection features resilient varieties, such as Beech hedges, Escallonia hedges, and Oleaster hedging options, each selected for their ability to withstand salty air, strong winds, and sandy soil types. Beech hedges are an excellent choice for coastal areas, offering dense foliage and beautiful seasonal colour changes. These hedges provide effective windbreaks and privacy screens, making them perfect for creating garden boundaries. Escallonia hedges are known for their vibrant flowers and glossy leaves, adding a splash of colour to any outdoor space.
As well as the challenging conditions faced due to the exposure in coastal areas, the soil in these positions can also cause some challenges. Our coastal hedge plants can handle shallow, dry soils that are often covered with shale and rocks.
If you approach a coastal garden in the same way as an inland or sheltered garden, the chances are that your plants will not survive. This is because coastal hedge plants often have specific characteristics that allow them to flourish, even in the most inhospitable conditions. These features can include tough leathery leaves, a waxy layer or a slightly hairy foliage, which offer protection from salt damage and reduce moisture loss.
Another benefit of choosing from our range of coastal hedging plants is that you can provide protection for other plants that are much more delicate. A coastal hedge will reduce the impacts of strong winds on other, smaller shrubs or plants, giving them a fighting chance to grow, whilst providing interesting seasonal interest of its own.
