As i have stated in previous threads there is nothing wrong with a

leylandii
hedge as long as it is properly maintained.
This rarely hapens, as they are planted to grow a quick barrier, this
happens in just a few years and then reality strikes home when this
wonderful barrier has to be trimmed, the sides nearly always get cut

because
it encroches on the garden, the top is seldom cut as this is hard

work.The
result a hedge ??? 30,40, or 50ft. tall that becomes a very big problem

to
all living close to it. AND I SPEAK FROM EXPERIANCE.

You are overstating. There are many well maintained lleylandii round our
area. It is wrong to say 'this rarely happens'.

I'm sorry you have had a bad experience. But just because you have had a
bad experience doesn't mean to say everyone should be banned from having
leylandii.

Hi All

We have planted young leylandiis this summer along the fence about 20

of
them. But the gap between these young trees are about 2 to 3 feet, and
sometimes it looks a bit hollow or empty. Would it be possible to plant
anything in these gaps? Wouldit be good idea, or would it be waste of

time?

cheers

Dan

Then just how do you think those who refuse to control their Leylandii or
any other evergreen hedge should be dealt with

The law gives no redress to the long suffering neighbour on the other side
