Hi! Please look at my 'brilliant' site about dolls houses and miniatures! I can always use new members, not matter how much you visit or not! Also, the more members I get the more things I can put on, so go on, do me a favor and at least look!

I don't have any seeds but last year I bought some hawthorn plants from wiggly wigglers, think they were about £1.95 each, very good plants and have taken strongly, the foliage is just out now. They have a good range of hedging plants. Next year if I can persuade the council not the hack the inside of the allotment hedge to shreds might even get some seed to save from some of the older hawthorns.
best wishes

Soobeth - do give hazel a go - it's the best hedge going - beautiful leaves, multistemmed - and nuts...what more could...Originally posted by Sue View PostThe law will hang the man or woman

Why don't you take cuttings from bushes near you?Last edited by SimonCole; 19-03-2007, 01:51 AM.Comment

Try cuttings Soobeth. One year I pruned several trees and shrubs in the spring. A bit late I know. Being of a frugal nature there were lots of nice straightish sticks which I shoved in round some herbaceous plants as supports. Guess what, some of them grew! They are now making a fine hedge with the odd maple in it in France.

Hi soobeth, I was wondering where you had got to as you haven't posted in a while! Sorry I can't help with seeds for hawthorn, but the 'whips' (young plants) can be bought very cheaply from garden centres and other suppliers. Seed can be slow to germinate and you might have to wait up to two years (see this). There is some cheap on ebay at the moment, try these.

Hi Soobeth, missed seeing you around. Hope the school stuff is going ok. Did you have to do a project?
I've not got any seedlings, but there may be some berries still on the trees along our canal, I'll have a look at the weekend. Would you like any elder berries too, I think there are still some around.
I may have some silver birch seeds for you this year too. Will pm you when I get some if you are interested.Last edited by madderbat; 19-03-2007, 07:33 PM.Comment

Any body want any germinated acrorns, have several hundred around in the back garden?
Alternatively baby oak trees - can be provided up to 60 years old tho getting it in the Jiffy bag may be a bit of a struggle.TonyF, Dordogne 24220Comment

Will keep an eye out for hawthorn and elder berries when the weather stops being sooo freezing (probably at the weekend). Will let you know if I can get any, and then save any silver birch seeds I find.Comment
