If you put in a wire fence then you know the dogs will not get through whatever you plant and will not have to worry if something gets a bit thin on the bottom in a few years time.

I also have a fairly long hedge of Lonicera,this is very easy to propagate,in fact if all the clippings dont get cleared up I often find little Lonicera plants growing,so if you are buying this for a hedge it might be worthwhile only buying about half the number of plants you need and take cuttings for the rest.

When the girls are much older I will be finding a nice spot for a pond

The Pigmy stays short - 3' or so but it is rich bronze red. The Roseglow has pink tips and gets quite a bit taller 5' or more.
The Golden I just spotted this year and it is one that had the verticullum wilt.

Here are just a few shrubs to look up. They all make good hedging.


Berberis aggregata       

Berberis darwinii

Berberis gagnepainii       

Berberis thunbergii        f.atropurpurea

Berberis thunbergii        'Aurea'

You can tell the weather's gone off today- lots of people online! As I still wait (and wait) for someone to transform my garden, my ideas are getting more ambitious, so I'm now thinking of a small pond (following Salli's plans with interest) and wondering whether to go the whole hog and take out the Leylandii hedge! Question is, what to replace it with?... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Nigella) http://realgardeners.yuku.com/topic/6579 Mon, 09 Jun 2003 00:32:29 GMT
