Box Leaf Privet is one of the most popular hedging plants as it grows all year round, it will grow in almost any soil or conditions, and if it is kept trimmed it looks as good or better than English Box. Box Leaved Privet loves hot sunny positions (they don’t do well in a shady corner) and almost any soil as long as it is moderately well drained.
To create a dense bushy low hedge or border you only need to plant 4 plants per metre. Box Leaf Privet loves plenty of water, regular fertilising and regular trimming. Given these are provided, you will find that you can create a dense fine traditional or English Box style border in just one full growing season with very little cost.

Chris says: “For a fast growing box hedge that is versatile and hardy, you can’t go past the Box Leaf Privet. This attractive border plant is drought, salt AND frost tolerant and will grow in both full sun or part shade. It is a fantastic alternative that will look just as good if not better than the English Box. ”

[/one_half_last] | Glauca Pencil Pines are widely known as the narrowest of all conifers. Conifer pencil pine doesn’t produce lots of cones that weigh down the branches and cause them to flop outwards, ruining their beautiful, conical shape. and they’re very hardy and tolerant.
Glauca Pencil Pines grow at a rate of about 1 meter per year in the right soils. Use them to frame features in the garden, create a narrow screen or line avenues.
As the name suggests, the pencil conifer grows in a tall, pencil-like shape without needing to be pruned. They grow best in full sun in well drained, loamy soil. |
