Hedging is commonly used to delineate spaces and boundaries within or around gardens. It is kept low and clipped in formal gardens, and is often used as a parterre.

There are distinctive types of hedging from the low or dwarf types that can be clipped easily into tight formal lines, or the larger varieties that form natural boundaries, as typified by species such as beech, hornbeam or leylandii.

Small to medium sized hedges such as yew, holly and privet are also popular choices as are the informal flowering types such as Spireae vibernum.

TENDERCARE has acres of choice evergreen specimens, multi-stemmed shrubs and trimmed ‘instant’ hedging. Many of our specimens are of varieties that are not available from the huge Italian and German nurseries, used so frequently by importers. They are produced specially by us for the British market in acres dedicated specifically to hedging. All our hedging is grown and selected for its quality. Varieties are listed in detail on our plant database
