Hedge Types
Different hedge species need different approaches. Here's a guide to the most common hedges we cut across Droitwich Spa and the surrounding villages, and what to bear in mind for each.
The most common tall hedge in Droitwich. Leylandii grows fast — up to 90cm per year — and can quickly become a problem if not cut regularly. It must never be cut back into old brown wood, as it won't re-shoot. We recommend cutting twice a year to keep it in check and always leave green growth on all sides.
Semi-evergreen and fast-growing, privet is common in Droitwich's residential streets. It responds well to hard cutting and can be shaped formally or kept as a loose informal hedge. Best cut 2–3 times a year during the growing season for a tidy result.
Cherry laurel is widely used as a privacy screen across the Droitwich area. It has large, glossy leaves and grows vigorously. We use secateurs alongside hedge trimmers on laurel to avoid shredded leaves — which look untidy and create entry points for disease. Best cut once or twice a year in spring and late summer.
A tough, traditional boundary hedge very common in the rural villages around Droitwich — Hanbury, Ombersley and Upton Warren in particular. Hawthorn is wildlife-friendly and provides nesting habitat, so we always check for birds before cutting. Best cut once a year in late summer after nesting season.
Beech is popular in formal gardens and holds its russet brown leaves through winter. It should be cut once a year in late August. Cutting in late summer encourages the hedge to hold its dead leaves through winter, providing structure and some privacy even when bare.
Box is used for formal topiary, low edging and knot gardens. It's slow-growing and fine-textured, taking to precise shaping very well. We cut box carefully with sharp tools to maintain clean edges. Box blight has become more common in Worcestershire in recent years — we can advise if we see early signs.
