MegaSack DRAW - 6pm Christmas Eve - LIVE on our YouTube Channel
Long story short .... the front of our cottage has conservation restrictions. We want to rebuild a boundary wall but council are playing silly buggers.
We can however replace the crappy trellis boundary fence with a natural boundary e.g. a hedge.
Looking for something not too bushy that can be trained for a section that I don't want to dig out.
Approximate length needed is about a cars length.
Can anyone help?
Beech?

Planted a mixture of native hawthorn and hornbeam out front a few years ago. It looks lovely when the hawthorn is in bloom and is alive with birdies and insects.
Have a look [url= http://www.hedgesdirect.co.uk/ ]here.[/url] Lots to choose from.
Bet on Rooney to finish to scorer offset by city to win the league. If 1 doesn’t happen then 2 comes in to play.

Leylandii?
Does beech not have really deep routes? Don't want anything too sturdy!
Dudle - Can/could the hedge be kept quite compact?
Liking the look of [url= http://www.hedgesdirect.co.uk/acatalog/griselinia_littoralis.html ]this[/url] comparable in cost to having a wall built which is a good thing.

Yes indeedy. I trim it once a year and keep it about 4ft high and 3ft wide (it was planted in 2 rows). It is very manageable and not terribly fast growing
you should contact roger the shrubber...I hear he's good at this stuff
