TOP TIPS

1For smaller hedges or where the growth isn’t too thick, a pair of sharp shears will make a neat job of trimming.

2Hedge cu ers are perfect for larger hedges and make easy work of trimming, especially where growth is thicker.

3When trimming the sides try to keep them vertical or leaning in slightly towards the top, to give the hedge strength.

4For the top of the hedge you can trim by eye to get a level finish, or alternatively use a string line as a guide.
