British Garden Centres releases expert guide to garden hedging

British Garden Centres, the largest family-owned garden centre group in the UK, has released an expert guide on selecting, planting, and caring for garden hedges as an alternative to traditional wooden fencing.

The guide suggests various plant species based on specific gardening goals. For fast coverage and boundaries, it recommends Cupressocyparis Leylandii and Cherry Laurel. For neat, formal aesthetics, the guide suggests Box or the hardier Ilex crenata 'Jenny'. For modern, upright growth in small spaces, Euonymus japonicus 'Green Spire' is advised. Additionally, Portuguese Laurel and Photinia 'Red Robin' are highlighted as elegant evergreen options for screening and visual appeal.
