I have what I think is called a Golden privet hedge and two of
them(beside each other) have have had all the leafs die and fall off.I
initially thought it was a problem caused by dogs as there are about 5
knocking about but now that the second plant is affected I am more
concerned. The hedge has being growing for 25years and is about 5ft. tall.
Not much to go on I know but any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Take the Dog out to find me




..............could be old age PJ. The time for skinning back privets is next May, (after the birds have nested and flown) so that it has the summer to recover. Compost now would help....Regards Ken
