Hedge Cotoneaster (Wholesale Bundles) | Spring 2027

Overview

Hedge cotoneaster is the standard clipped hedge of cold country towns, with dark shiny leaves that turn red and orange in fall.

Origin & History

Native to Siberia and northern Asia. The usual hedge plant across the prairie provinces and northern plains.

Fruit & Uses

Small pinkish flowers feed bees and the black fruit hangs on for birds. It takes shearing well and fills in to the ground.

Growth Habit

Upright, dense shrub, 6 to 8 ft unsheared.

Spacing

Plant 1.5 to 2 ft apart for a tight hedge. A bundle of 25 covers about 40 to 50 ft of hedge.

Pollination

Bee-pollinated and fruitful alone.

Cold hardiness

We rate hedge cotoneaster to zone 2, winters to -50°F.

Other Notes

Like its relatives it can get fire blight, so prune in dry weather.

How wholesale orders work

• Bundles can't be split. Sizes under 3 ft. come 25 to a bundle, 3 ft. and taller come 20 to a bundle.
• Price breaks count every Farm & Ranch bundle in your cart, any mix of plants. 4 bundles, 12 bundles and 24 bundles each drop the price on all of them. The discount shows up in your cart on its own.
• Add to your order any time before it ships. Same shipping address, and the bundles count together toward the next price break.
• No cancellations after February 1. Cancel part of an order before then and the rest is priced at the break it still earns.
• If we come up short on a plant, you keep the price break you paid for and we refund the bundles we couldn't send.
• Our dead plant guarantee covers these the same as everything else we sell. A plant that never leafs out its first season gets a credit code for what you paid for it plus its share of the shipping. We can't break a bundle, so credit goes toward a future order, not loose replacement plants.
