having just moved in to a new house the garden boundry is a small rough
bare looking hedge and i would like to replace it. i am after some
advice on which type to choose. i an after the very quickest growing
evergreen hedge going but is it is a long boundry then cost is a
factor. there really is no problem with it growing too fast or too high
is it is a farm track with a footpath on the other side so no one to
upset and easy to cut with cherry picker. would be very greatful for
any sugestions. thanks ben.

Where you are located - climate, hardiness zone, etc. - is essential
information before any appropriate suggestions can be made. Broadleaf
evergreens, like English or cherry laurel, tend to establish and grow
much faster than conifers but their use is often limited to warmer
winter climates.
