Leylandii hedges are dense, hardy 'living walls' that are often a haven for wildlife. Growing well in most soil types, as long as they are not water logged, Leylandii are excellent screen and privacy hedges that respond well to regular trimming. The Leylandii hedge is a very fast growing evergreen conifer (growth rate of approximately 2.5ft per year) and is very attractive, making it a common choice for surburban gardeners.
If you are seeking a slower growing alternative to Leylandii hedging, you may like to consider evergreen Western Red Cedar or English Yew hedging plants.
