Windbreaks & Hedges
Since 1977 Blake Nursery has advised customers on how to plant windbreaks and shelterbelts that break the wind and offer privacy and beauty. Lately we’ve added Bio-Hedges with an emphasis on attracting wildlife, especially birds. All three of these screenings will offer year-round, seasonal beauty and enjoyment if planned correctly. They will also enhance the value of your property. We’d be happy to advise — just ask! See our Windbreak Planting Tips article for more information.
These prices are very reasonable because the plants are small, young bare-root plants that are purchased in multiples of 10 or 25. If fewer plants than bundle sizes are desired, cost is $5.50 each. If possible please call ahead to reserve your order so we can have it ready for pick up. Allow a week or more for orders larger than 100 per variety. All orders must be picked up no later than May 24th. There is no guarantee on bare-root plants, although we deal only with the hardiest stock and ensure that all plants are healthy when they leave our nursery.
