Further information
Rabbits can gnaw through the bark at the base of a young hedging plant in a single night, ringing the stem and killing it. The Rainbow Spiral Hedge Guard puts a physical barrier around the vulnerable lower stem, and it’s one of the quickest and most cost-effective ways to protect a hedge during its first few seasons.
The spiral design twists around the plant in seconds. It needs no stakes, ties or other fixings, and it flexes outwards as the stem thickens, so you don’t have to come back and adjust it. The 60cm height covers the zone that rabbits can reach, and the UV-resistant plastic stands up to sun, wind and rain.
This version is the 50mm diameter with no holes. The wider spiral suits thicker whips, feathered saplings and bushier plants, while the solid, no-holes design gives a continuous barrier along the whole length of the stem. The clear plastic lets light through to the plant and keeps a low profile in the landscape.
Choosing the right guard: a spiral guard protects the stem but doesn’t create the warm, humid microclimate of a tree shelter. If you’re dealing with hares or deer, or want faster growth, look at the Tubex Standard Tree Shelter range instead.
