Hello,

can anyone recommend a a hedge that can be kept at 3ft. I'm looking to
create a 42ft long boundary hedge,
and I am looking for ideas. I would like, preferably, an evergreen hedge,
but will consider a semi-evergreen.

I would like the hedge to be interesting, i.e. with flowers/berries, so
not
a Buxus.

My house is on a Barrats estate, so from that you should read that the
soil
is very poor, and gets slightly
waterlogged after a heavy downpour.

I have logged onto http://www.hedging.co.uk for advice but the choice
seems
to vast!!!

Can someone please narrow this down for me.

Additionally has anyone ever dealt with this site.


Thanks in advance
