Designing With Elveden Instant Hedges

Elveden’s diverse range of hedges caters to a variety of design needs.

Privacy Screening: For properties requiring immediate privacy consider fast-growing evergreens like Ligustrum ovalifolium (Oval Leaf Privet) or Photinia Red Robin.

Formal Gardens: Yew hedging (Taxus bachata) adds a touch of classic elegance, perfect for defining boundaries and creating zones within a landscape.

Wildlife-Friendly Gardens: Encourage biodiversity with flowering options like Hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna) or mixed native hedges.

Security: Deter intruders with dense, prickly hedges such as Berberis (Berberis thunbergii), or Holly (Ilex aquifolium).

Show Gardens: Create structure and definition with pre-grown hedges delivered direct to site.
