Hi Everyone.
I am looking some advice on types of hedges that work well together.
I have purchased a plot of land in the heart of the northern Irish countryside and it has a 150meter lane way into it.
On the left hand side of my lane is a field and on the right hand side another lane runs parallel to mine for the same length into a separate building plot.
On the left field side of my lane I have planted a mixed wildlife hedge, Hawthorne, hazel, dog rose, blackthorn, rowan, holly ect.
There will be about 80 meters from the back of my building plot towards the entrance of the lane that will need to be 'made private' from my new neighbor when we eventually get finishing our new houses.
I am worried that if I plant the same mixed hedge between the two lanes this type of hedge wont provide enough pricy especially in the winter when the hedge loses its leaves.
Has anyone any ideas or experience in mixing deciduous and evergreen hedges along one side of a lane way or any other ideas of what we could do between our lanes?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
