mind you they all grow better in the ground than in pots

Better to bite the bullet and get rid of the Leylandii .......pile in the
compost and replant with largest size of above you can find/afford

I have a leylandi hedge about 10` long which I keep trimmed to about 2
metres trouble is its got to wide (my fault) I would like to replace it
but
thinking i will keep leylandi til I get something else. I am looking at
getting whatever and growing them in pots til they reach say about 4 or 5
feet then put them in to replace leylandi. What would be a good
replacement
and also one which would be ok to grow in pots for a year or two?

thanks
