From time to time leylandii seem to hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons, so I thought it was time I spoke in their favour.
The problem is that leylandii have not received the care and attention they should in the garden. They need a yearly light prune to keep them in shape and good order. If this is not done then that is when they romp away and get out of hand. This can cause problems with lack of light at adjoining properties and restricting views. But if good husbandry is maintained they make a perfect hedge, an evergreen screen and a good sound barrier. If left unattended they can grown up to 1m a year and will reach a height of up to 50m. This is not what leylandii were grown for and not what the average gardener wants at his property, so a trim once a year will keep them in check and achieve what they were designed to do.
Anyone who buys leylandii from us will be given suitable advice on the upkeep and care of these plants.
