Screening hedging in shady area?
I would like to establish a hedge like screen down the perimeter of out
wood, along a length of about 100 yards. The ground is an old ditch that has become in-filled with pine needle humus and leaf mould, over many years, so it drains very rapidly. i tried transplanting some 4 year old leylandii shrubs, but the majority died through apparent lack of water, despite my efforts to keep them well wetted in the recent dry spell. A lot of the boundary is under the shade of old oak tress, so light is at a premium. I would have liked the height of leylandii, but would some other form of evergreen be more suitable? The boundary is hundreds of yards from any buildings and leylandii would be entirely appropriate as we have no neighbors within a vast distance to upset or deny light or view to. Thanks. -- Best Regards, Chris. |
