I would like to congratulate you for looking after your hedge. So
many people don't.

Actually you're wrong, most people *do*, its the minority that gives
Leylandii a bad name.

You obviously don't live in mong land


I took my front hedge down about 18" a few years ago with the idea of
removing it altogether later. It looked a bit naked for a few months
but recovered quite well.

Now it looks perfect 'cause it's gone and the front room is full of
light again.

Who would plant a tall hedge in front of their own window???

The prat I bought it off.
