Hedges


One of the hardest things to get to grips with in this garden is it's overall design. I've given it a couple years to talk to me, make sense. It doesn't. So, this hedge is going to go. It is a yew hedge, it seems like such a shame to take it down but it doesn't add anything to the overall structure. It is also wonky! What you can see in the picture above is a straight section that then curves towards us and stops at the tree. There is another section that is going to stay but get lopped to reduce the height by half to allow more light in.


I'm still pondering, but about 99% sure that it is going to happen. It will probably be replaced with another hedge in time, possibly a rose hedge. But not in quite the same place.
