Best plant for low clipped hedge pls.
 

I am thinking of replacing an internal fence with a low clipped hedge. I
would like it to look very neat (if I can hone my clipping skills :-(( )
and compact. When I write low I mean 1822 to 2 ', sorry young 'uns 45-60mm..
Any suggestions of what plant would be best please.
TIA

Box looks good kept clipped and formal. Nandina domestica makes a lovely
low-growing hedge but you probably wouldn't find it neat looking enough.
