Formal Hedges
Formal Hedging
Surprisingly (at first sight) there are relatively few hedging plants that are widely used for formal hedges. On closer examination, the reason becomes obvious. The plants you find in formal hedges do the job wonderfully well. Beech, be it copper or green, grows anywhere there is drainage and some light. Yew will just about grow in the dark, and Hornbeam certainly will (and loves the heavy ground that beech does not). Laurel kills noise and light pollution, while holly clips beautifully. And all of these plants are just about bombproof, forgiving the worst mistakes you can make when you are clipping them. Full our full range of hedging.
