I've got a bare mostly breezeblock end wall in the back garden. I'd like to line it with a hedgerow - on the other side is a small group of tall sycamores and ash trees, neglected by the behind neighbours, so whatever goes there has to be reasonably tolerant of dry and summer shade.
Does anyone have recommendations of where to buy? I don't drive.

I'm considering this https://www.suttons.co.uk/Gardening/Trees-and-Shrubs/Hedge-by-Type/Create-a-Wildlife-Hedgerow/Mixed-Native-Hawthorn-Based-Bare-Roots_253575.htm - either that or the blackthorn based one - I think it's about twice as much as I need, would anyone be interested in going halves? Or smaller quantities.

Hazel could be another option, or mix:

yep I was also thinking about planting a hazel as a shrub or a tree. the one you linked to is similar to the Sutton's one - 50% hawthorn then a mix of other things including hazel. looks like a nice site though, thanks.
