Leylandii cypress ar such a pretty tree left untrimmed, I don't know =

why
anyone would want to trim them if planted responsibly. Who would erect =

a 50'
fence with their neighbor? I guess there are some who would like to, =

but
here in SC, they grow about 2'/ year depending on care up to about =

20'. They
then seem to gradually slow in growth but are still no slouches. As =

such, I
would not plant them within 20' of a building or 10' of a walk or =

drive, not
so much for the roots as the overall size. They root nicely and I'm =

about to
plant some more.
