Hedge planting can completely transform the feel of a garden. In place of stark fencing or lifeless walls, a lush, living boundary softens the space, adds structure, and brings movement and life – all while providing valuable habitat for birds, bees, and butterflies.
There’s no shortage of options to choose from. Some of the best hedging plants offer handsome evergreen structure, like yew and laurel, while others deliver seasonal interest with bursts of flowers, from spring-flowering forsythia to the glossy blooms of choisya.
