Recently completed planting to screen the new HS2
development.
A former client of ours has recently been forced to
move house and garden due to the fact that the HS2 train line is due to pass
through their kitchen! The reality of the certainty of the route alignment
means that, if the route is close to your house rather that actually running
through it, now is the time to plant screening trees and shrubs. The photo
above shows a screening belt recently planted for another one of our clients. It has both evergreen and deciduous species
including Field maple, Evergreen Oak, Hawthorn, Holly and Hazel. This planting
will grow and will provide a complete screen in about 10 years’ time against
the new rail line, while enhancing the view for many others and adding a
valuable wildlife corridor linking local habitats.
If you are affected by HS2 and would like to discuss
the possibility of screening with planting do get in touch with Nicholsons. We
can advise on species and location for screening and we also supply screen
plants and have an efficient planting and aftercare service to ensure the best
establishment of your investment.
