    I just bought 3' laurel hedging in Mulvey's Garden Centre for....€1.99 each.
    Now that HAS to be good value.
    They are based on the Roscommon Rd about 5 miles out from Athlone.
    Give them a shout on 0906-494288.

    I own a garden centre and they cost more than that for me to buy trade price!

    Probably whips/rootballed so not that big a deal. Anyways you'll probably pay dearly to maintain such hedging over the longer term!

    Why should/would cheaper hedging cost more to maintain?
    or are you referring to Laurel in general?

    There's a small nursery up the road from me (Co.Monaghan), I got 40 off 2-3' tall bareroot green privet at the weekend for 1 euro each! Lovely healthy plants too!

    Yes, sorry about the confusion, Laurel is such a fine but enormous hedging plant, it does take some effort to keep it in check as it matures.
