screen off a public area lying beyond this border hedge around part of
our home back garden in Dundee. It is evergreen and has a slightly
fragrant resin on the leaves. Although most of the plant has dense
leaves, it does produce some smallish flowers in the summer that in my
experience do not fall to leave any significant ground debris. It does
not produce berries. Is it absolutely crucial that you have no flowers
at all? The link below gives an example of what is available and the
properties of the plants. I am not in any way endorsing any particular
merchant and I found this as an example simply by googling with
"escallonia hedge" as the key words.
