A classic choice for a tidy, low-maintenance hedge. Peking Cotoneaster is a long-time favourite for creating 3–6ft. hedges thanks to its dense branching, uniform growth, and excellent durability. The shiny dark green leaves have a clean, refined look through summer, then turn brilliant shades of red and orange in fall, giving your hedge standout seasonal colour.
Spacing: Plant 18 in. apart
Soil Preference: Prefers acidic soil
Mature Height: 3–6ft.
A reliable, attractive hedge that offers year-round structure and vibrant fall colour, perfect for property lines, walkways, and foundation plantings.

I was concerned with what was sent as they were just sticks, I had never purchased bareroot stock before. I was pleasantly surprised with how well they grew and how full they were after a couple of months. Will definitely be buying from them again as well as recommending to my friends.
The little seedlings are doing fine. Looking forward to them growing bigger!
