Great service for hedge trimming and tidy up. Prompt and professional.

Peter Ridout

Henderson Nurseries are my only port of call for bare root hedging. The fact that stock is lifted and delivered the same day, I believe, significantly improved the success rate. Professional & knowledgable with a refreshingly ‘can do’ attitude.

"Having recently worked with Henderson Nurseries on our garden redesign in Braemar, we were very impressed not only by the quality of the trees and the delivery experience, but also by the advice and expertise provided on tree selection and their suitability for the area. Scott and Lois are both excellent communicators, and it was a pleasure working with them. We will definitely be using Henderson Nurseries again for future Scottish landscape projects."

Choosing What's Right For You

When choosing between bare root and root ball trees, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. The right choice depends on your specific space, soil, and planting goals. A great starting point is deciding whether you want an evergreen or deciduous tree/ hedge, considering what purpose the tree will serve—privacy, shade, structure, or seasonal interest—and what colours and textures best suit your garden’s design. Whether you go for bare root or root ball, selecting the right tree begins with understanding your garden’s needs and your personal style.
