Can anyone tell me how far away from the border of my garden to the
pavement
should I plant my box?

I want the hedge to be about 3 feet tall but I don't want it to encroach
on
to the pavement too much.

At this height how wide should my hedge be to be stable?

Thanks

Hi Steve,

It depends how wide you want the finished hedge. I would suggest 18" to
24"
thick would be the right proportion to the height. So plant 9" to 12" from
the path.
