Hello,
Well my question in a previous post about white powder on hedge has resolved itself in that turns out it was the roots from this hedge that had grown into a drain below and is no more.
As you can probably guess from my previous posts new to gardening and was looking for a hedge to replace the one that has gone, with a new little boy running around probably good the thorny one has gone and was thinking maybe a box hedge would be good - would I need to buy a couple ?
Also reading in RHS book at weekend (looking for an evergreen) one hedge that came up was escallonia - would that be a good fit and easy to shape to similar shape as hawthorn or would the box be better ?
Picture of hedge that was and space to fill below :
The spot gets the early moning sun but nothing after that.
Many thanks
Lawrence
