Elaeagnus x Ebbingei, commonly known as Oleaster is a very popular, robust, fast growing evergreen that makes the most fantastic hedge. It is also tolerant of salt winds allowing it to thrive in coastal locations. The leaves are dark green with silver speckles and a silver underside. This mix of colours gives a silver shimmering effect when the leaves of an Elaeagnus hedge flutter in the wind. Elaeagnus / Oleaster produce small, fragrant, creamy-white flowers in Autumn and orange fruits in Spring. A versatile plant, an Elaeagnus hedge with its attractive foliage will provide a great backdrop for planted borders but is also useful as an attractive screen, growing up to 3-4 metres high.
Elaeagnus / Oleaster is an excellent choice for a fast growing evergreen hedge or screen with seasonal interest.

Rootballed plants are available in bigger sizes from October through to April, weather dependent. These plants are grown in bigger sizes going up to 3 metres in height. Rootballed plants are lifted during the plants dormant period. This reduces the amount of stress imposed on the plants and increases the chances of successful re-establishment. Plants are also lifted to order to minimise the time they are stored out of the ground before replanting. Although rootball plants may seem expensive many of these plants will be between 6-15 years old and will have been root pruned and trimmed many times before they are lifted. Rootball plants tend to be bushier than pot grown plants as they have been out in the field and more exposed to the elements. They are lifted from the field using specialist machinery and the soil rootball is hessian wrapped to protect it. This protective wrapping should be left on at planting and will naturally bio degrade.
