Thank you for this video, I’ll be heading off to my local garden centre this week 👍🏻😊

[@sharonmccormack8504]

Fabulous video, very informative showing different heights and prices. Looking forward to more ...you are a natural. Well done.

[@amandarebello1574]

So glad you have a hint of prices .best video for a newbie .Looking for a hedge screening in a new build.

[@becplantsplants765]

Thanks, I hope it helped! :)

[@simont8279]

Love this, I hope you come back to it and do some more! I'm currently in the expensive process of hedging almost the entire perimeter of my garden. I already have some Red Robin in a small area. I was considering Laurel but was put off when reading about them being poisonous. Not sure if I am over thinking it? Super keen on the Viburnum for some winter interest, although dubious about how it would look in bulk as hedging!

[@veronicad3565]

Great video! Thank you for your inside. I used most of your choices

[@ifeyhome]

Been looking for hedging screening, so this video was right up my street 👍🏽

[@mimsy764]

Thanks very clear advice

[@susanray975]

Great video. Exactly what I was looking for..

[@alexandrafox8093]

thank you for sharing! I'm new to gardening and I find it all a bit overwhelming. I have a small garden and Im looking for an evergreen flowering shrub that will be easy to maintain and will provide some privacy. Very pleased to have come across your video, it answered some questions I had :) Now I need to decide between Osmanthus and Viburnum :)

[@becplantsplants765]

Hey! That's so awesome to hear, I am really pleased I could help. Feel free to holla if you'd like more advice :)

[@naumikaur7459]

Great informative video. Hope you are going to do more…

[@crazymairnonaya8379]

Thank you. Great video !

[@joshuatravers8737]

Great video thank you.. what does full sun to part shade mean?

[@twotales7337]

Thanks. Useful information delivered clearly. 👍🏻

[@jamesstanley7263]

This is a perfect video for me and what I’m trying to do in my garden! Do all red robjns flower? My neighbour has one with tight clusters of flowers, but mine has much darker red leaves and never flowers!

[@denko44]

Photinias have alot of disease issues, atleast here in the states. Coppertop viburnum would be a better choice here. Same red foliage minus all the issues.

[@juliegibson6614]

Thank you - I have a new small garden that I need to bring to life. This vlog is just what I need. Please keep them coming. Straight to the point - top tips and cost - brill. Thank you 🙏

[@carefreedelight2355]

I would like ( similar features to the ones you are using) something to grow as a hedge ( part shade but morning sun till 12.00pm ) - can be a tree- as a screen .

[@stampinghippo7157]

Very good approach to this theme. Maybe you should take in consideration the root developement over the years. Believe you me, I have six neighbours with very mature hegdes. They have the privacy, I have to deal with the roots. It´s costly and you may relie on a lawyer at the end. I know it is about plants, but every plant has roots. Subbed anyways.

[@becplantsplants765]

Thanks an excellent point, thank you.

[@yogigardener5219]

Hi bec I just come across your channel and really enjoyed the video is there anymore I know things have been strange because of covid thank you.

[@dianebarron8362]

question -- will you mention in future videos the height in feet please?

[@firebird4240]

Any advice on how i can tell if a spotted laurel is male or female? I have just brought one but have no idea which it is

[@marycummins6338]

Very good video about options for privacy you didnt mention pyrcanthus

[@becplantsplants765]

Thank you, and yes Pyracantha is another fantastic option!

[@carefreedelight2355]

How high does the prunus grow?

[@bazzy8376]

How about for zone 5?

[@raydaveyrd]

how far apart woudl you plant those peached red robins?

[@lukimeyvisfamily4732]

Hi Bec, I have small garden and would like to make hedge for 10 meters. Is it better to have hedge of 1 type of plant eg. only photinia or only viburnum tinus? Or is that possible to mix photinia with viburnum tinus? What is the spacing for the plant with height 30/40cm? Thanks for your advise.

[@becplantsplants765]

Hello, you can absolutely have a mixed hedge! I'd plant 60cm - 100cm apart to allow for each plants mature size.

[@jamesloder3469]

Hi! This is a great video! We have been looking at a Viburnum x burkwoodii for privacy from our neighbours. The position is part shade and we would like it to grow around 8 foot. Would you recommend this?

[@becplantsplants765]

Another excellent choice. I grew up with one in my garden!

[@Jorg05111980]

Photinia as a hedge is in my opinion a bit too open, it also tends to loose leaves in the winter, sometimes without any real clear reason. I'd say the Laurel is by far the easiest / cheapest to use as a hedge.

[@isthatsonotsofast9604]

What zones do these plants thrive in?

[@fieldtrailer]

Are those red tip photenias? Disease prone. Mine are all dieing after 15 years.

[@catlady1462]

Where are you located please?

[@shivermetimber6738]

Great information thank you

[@YSLRD]

Awfully rough with the plants.

[@becplantsplants765]

Haha you're in good company when you say that!
