Evergreen Hedging

Evergreen hedging provides year-round screening and structure, with choices for clipped formal boundaries, looser screens and shelter planting.

Evergreen hedging provides privacy, shelter and a consistent green boundary throughout the year. It is particularly useful where screening is needed in winter as well as summer or where the hedge forms an important part of the garden’s structure. Ireland’s mild climate supports a broad range of evergreen hedge plants, but wind, salt and wet soil can narrow the choice on exposed sites. Selecting for the local conditions creates a denser hedge with fewer gaps and less winter damage.

Why It Works in Irish Gardens

Ireland’s mild climate supports a broad range of evergreen hedge plants, but wind, salt and wet soil can narrow the choice on exposed sites. Selecting for the local conditions creates a denser hedge with fewer gaps and less winter damage.

Choosing the Right Plants

Choose hedging by desired height, evergreen or deciduous habit, growth rate and the amount of maintenance you are prepared to give it. The best spacing depends on plant size and the species used.

Planting and Care

Water regularly during establishment, keep competing weeds away from the base and begin formative pruning early. Once established, trim at the correct time for the species so flowering, berries or nesting wildlife are not unnecessarily disturbed.
