Must have one, but only if i can grow it? I saw it at Burton Agnes
when I went to see the Campanula collection, it was growing up a yew
hedge on the north side.

I have a HORRIBLE Layland hedge at the bottom of the garden which I am
on the north side of. It gives us no privacy at all, as the first 15
foot are just stumps with dead branches, the top 15 foot plus is green
bushy branches which takes the light. I have underplanted our north
side with yew, some of which is up to 15 foot now, and I am hoping
that when this grows, my neighbours will allow me to take the Layland
down. It is in this position I would like to plant the Tropaelum, but

1 will it grow in under these conditions

It's growing in a similar position at York Gate, is it not?

2 will it survive in North Yorks frost pocket

Don't know - again, try looking at the one at York gate, Adel, N Leeds.
