Rootballed Acer campestre
Field Maple Hedging
A hardy UK native deciduous hedge with attractive lobed foliage, warm autumn colour and excellent wildlife value, ideal for natural boundaries, mixed native hedging and exposed sites.
Acer campestre, commonly known as Field Maple, is a versatile native hedging plant well suited to rural, traditional and naturalistic landscapes. Its distinctive lobed green leaves form an attractive leafy hedge through the growing season before developing beautiful yellow and golden autumn colour.
Field Maple responds well to regular trimming and can be grown as a single-species hedge or incorporated into a mixed native hedge. Its tolerance of exposed conditions and a range of soils makes it particularly useful for countryside boundaries and wildlife-friendly planting.
Why Choose Acer campestre?
UK native hedging species
Attractive lobed green foliage
Excellent yellow and golden autumn colour
Hardy and tolerant of exposed conditions
Responds well to regular trimming
Excellent for mixed native hedging

Why Buy Rootballed Field Maple?
Rootballed Acer campestre is field-grown and lifted with a substantial ball of soil retained around its root system.
This allows larger, more established Field Maple plants to be supplied for projects where greater initial height and structure are required, making rootballed plants particularly useful for substantial boundaries and established landscape schemes.
Available Sizes
Rootballed Field Maple is available in a range of heights, subject to seasonal nursery availability.
Larger plants provide greater immediate structure, while smaller sizes can offer an economical solution for longer hedge runs and mixed native planting schemes.
How Many Plants Do I Need?
Plant spacing depends upon the size selected, whether Field Maple is being planted as a single-species hedge or as part of a mixed native hedge, and the density required.
Our hedging guide will help you calculate the appropriate number of plants for the length of your proposed hedge.
