Hello
Against my advice we've had our front garden covered in floor bricks, as
somewhere to take the car off the road. Between that area and the pavement
we are thinking to try and grow a low narrow hedge to mark the edge of our
space and
stop people wandering in. I am after advice as to suitable plants for that
purpose. Plants suitable for a hedge three foot high (four foot maximum),
that
will stay compact more or less down to the bottom and won't get leggy.
We'll
have to
remove two or three bricks in order to plant each one and I'm not sure how
easy it is going to be to prepare the soil in each little space, so it
should be a species which takes easily and ideally doesn't suffer drought
easily as most of the surrounding ground will be hard covered.
Something that also produces flowers would be a bonus but isn't essential.
Has anybody any suggestions please?
Thank you
Peter
