Leylandii

[craft1948]

I'm thinking of planting golden leylandii along 2 sides of my garden...........I know they have to be pruned regularly and I intend to limit them to 5 feet high.
Any problems with them I should know about please?

Hi again craft !

Have a look at above as I grew it along one side of my garden when I moved in to my last house.
It is ideal as a deterrent and privacy hedge and it attracts the Birds when the small Fruit berries appear in abundance. It is thorny but looks good.

I see what you mean craft! Always difficult, although I suppose you could erect a fence of your choosing inside the current one on your side. Suggesting you move is a bit OTT!

LOL craft !
I'm in dogging section on Chatterbank at the mo.
If your Leylandii were tall enough all the doggers would be in your garden lol
