I have grubbed out a leylandi hedge and replaced it with hornbeam saplings of various sizes (2' to 4') which self seed all over the garden.
I'm aiming for a hedge approx 4' high and 2' wide - not stock proof but as a privacy screen.
Has anyone got any hints on when to prune, how to prune to encourage density and height and width control.
So far only about 5yds planted but if successful 95 more yds planned so it's a long term project
