A hedge is a wonderful thing and I have been waiting patiently for some months now to start the process of planting hedges. Today was that day and I have laid over 60m of bare root beech hedging in three specific sections of the garden. Firstly and most importantly, alongside the Parterre creating a clear division between the back and front garden. Secondly, to close off the Nursery Garden in the middle of which access is provided by our old oak gate. And finally, two runs of hedging against our western and southern boundaries overlooking open fields.
It was hard but rewarding and the effect immediate. An investment that will be repaid in full over the coming years.
