We are frequently asked for suggestions about hedges
and screens, so we thought we’d give you some
information on a few of the different plants available. When choosing your
hedge plants you need to think about things such as position, height,
width, flowers, and most importantly, how often are you prepared to prune?
If you want a screen in a narrow area don’t overlook
climbers. They can make a great screen in a short time, without taking up
too much space. They need regular trimming to keep them in shape, but then
so do hedges.
Mc Donalds restaurants always have nice examples of
hedges, all beautifully trimmed like we’d want in our own gardens. But
remember they have gardeners to come around and maintain those hedges on a
regular basis. Some of the most frequently used hedges at Mc Donalds are
Japanese Box, Murraya, Camellia Sasanqua and Photina Robusta.
The following are a few examples of some popular and
easy to grow hedges.
