The Defender Shrub Shelter is a robust, twin-wall shelter designed to ensure successful establishment of shrubs, bushy species, and multi-stemmed whips. With its generous 150mm internal diameter, it’s ideal for plants that require more space to grow—perfect for hedging schemes, biodiversity corridors, revegetation projects, and landscape planting in exposed or high-risk areas.
Manufactured from durable UV-stabilised polypropylene, this rigid shelter protects young shrubs from rabbits, hares, herbicide drift, and mechanical damage during their vulnerable establishment phase. Integrated ventilation slots support healthy airflow, while the flared rim minimises stem abrasion and damage.
The Defender Shrub Shelter is designed for ease of use in large-scale planting. It comes flat-packed and features pre-formed stake slots—integrated channels in the shelter wall that securely hold the supporting stake in place, ensuring fast and stable installation without the need for separate ties or fixings.
