Leylandii Trees. Cupressus Leylandii. Leyland Cypress Hedging. Fast-Growing Leylandii for Hedging and Screening.

As one of the fastest growing conifers, Leyland Cypress (botanical name Cupressus x Leylandii) is a very popular choice for both hedging and evergreen screening. These evergreen Leylandii specimens are sold as Green Leylandii Root Balls, meaning they are supplied with a proper root system fully intact but without a pot. Root ball hedging plants are grown directly in the ground in open fields rather than containers. When the mature plants are dormant during the autumn and winter months, they are dug out of the ground with the soil around the plant’s root ball intact and wrapped in biodegradable Hessian sacking for protection. Leyland Cypress Root Ball plants are ideal for planting en masse. In root ball form, they are probably the most cost effective and fastest growing hedging or privacy screening available.Best known for its flame-shaped outline, Cupressus Leylandii is an evergreen conifer with lush, scale-like foliage. Deep green and dense, the leaves offer year-round interest and can serve both as a privacy hedging and a windbreaker. When it comes to ideal growing conditions, Cupressus x Leylandii is quite undemanding. Leylandii Root Ball plants can be planted in any well-drained soil, in a hole 2 to 3 times bigger than the root ball diameter. This evergreen conifer thrives in full sun, but it will fare well in partial shade also.When you plant the Leylandii Root Balls, make sure to leave enough space between them to allow them to fully develop. For best results, the spacing should be about 1.5 metres apart. As this is a vigorous, fast growing cultivar, the Leylandii Root Balls will quickly form a wall of dense foliage. After planting, water thoroughly and apply a layer of mulch. The biodegradable hessian sack and a wire mesh protecting the root system should not be removed.Long-lived, Leyland Cypress Root Balls can grow as much as 1 metre in height per year. Once established, regular pruning of the new growth twice or three times per year is required to maintain a neat shape for your Leyland Cypress Hedge. This will also allow you to easily maintain the hedge at the precise height you require. Fully hardy in the United Kingdom, Leylandii Cypress can survive even if the temperatures drop 20 degrees below zero. Robust and tough, this cultivar is rarely affected by pest and diseases.Leyland root ball hedging is the fastest and most cost effective way to establish a beautiful green evergreen hedge in your garden. Green Leyland Cypress Root Balls are good value for money and a great option for mass planting. This cultivar is tough, easy to grow, and practically maintenance-free, and its vigorous growth rate ensures you won’t have to wait for years to get an impressive evergreen screen or hedge. And, if you’re prone to sneezing and sniffing when around Christmas trees, you’ll be glad to know that Cupressus x Leylandii doesn’t produce the allergy-triggering oleoresins, which makes it ideal for people with sap or pine tree allergy.Please see also Cupressus Leylandii hedging plants in containers offering a wide choice of sizes and maturities.

Multi Stem Boxwood Buxus Sempervirens. These elegant multi-stem Buxus specimens feature a rounded ball-shaped crown on top of raised multi-stems, with around 5 or 6 stems per plant.

Buxus Sempervirens is very slow-growing with a tight, compact habit resulting in a dense, even form when clipped. Due to these characteristics, Buxus is very often used for topiary and geometrical low-hedging and is invariably grown for its attractive foliage. How To Care For Box Topiary Boxwood does not mind pruning and shaping, a trait that has made it popular particularly for use as topiary, ornamental hedges and parterres in formal gardens. Boxwood multi stems are suitable either for growing in containers or in the ground. Plants in containers will need fertilizer. Box topiary should be trimmed around mid-summer, and again in late summer if required. During the growing season, make sure your Buxus plants get plenty of water. How to use Buxus Sempervirens Multi Stem: These Multi Stem Buxus plants can be used for creating height and depth when planted on its own or with other forms of Buxus – such as Buxus balls and globes, where the foliage begins at ground level.  The multi-stems give the crown a lift and place it above ground level, leaving room for under planting if desired. These Multi Stem Buxus topiary trees are suitable for use as part of a formal garden scheme. They look very elegant as sentries either side of an entrance.

Pyrus Calleryana Chanticleer Pleached Ornamental Pear Trees.

Pyrus Calleryana Chanticleer Pleached Ornamental Pear Trees.

Pleached Pyrus Calleryana Chanticleer - Pleached Ornamental Pear TreeFruit trees such as ornamental pears and apples have long been used for purposes of pleaching. In particular, the deciduous Pyrus Calleryana Chanticleer (Callery Pear or Ornamental Pear) naturally has an upright, densely branched growth habit, a most useful attribute in a pleached tree. It produces small white flowers in spring and its foliage has vibrant autumn colour. Add to this the fact that it is always early to leaf in the spring and late to drop its leaves in the autumn, more reasons why it is widely acknowledged as a good tree for pleaching. Pyrus Calleryana Chanticleer (Ornamental Pear) Tree has rich dark green foliage in summer. An abundant flowerer, Callery pear trees will produce masses of white blossom in springtime which attracts bees and other pollinators, usually before the leaves have fully emerged. In autumn, the foliage turns a fabulous red, gold and orange. Its fruits, which are small, hard and brown coloured, are enjoyed as an early winter feast by birds, once the fruits have been softened by the first frosts.  Belonging to the Rosaceae family, deciduous Pyrus Calleryana Chanticleer is native to China and among the hardiest of pear trees. Pyrus Calleryana Chanticleer tolerates air pollution and is known for its resistance to disease, so this is a good tree to grow in urban areas. It is also salt resistant and more wind tolerant than other pear varieties and will therefore do well in coastal areas. You can plant in a full sun or partial shade position but it prefers full sun if possible. A row of pleached trees can be used to great effect to create shaded avenues or driveways. Pleaching is also a way of growing trees in smaller, more confined urban spaces. Use them as a living screen for above the fence or an ornamental wall in the garden. Highly decorative, they will have the white blossom in early spring, green foliage in summer and lovely fiery red foliage in the autumn. Pleached trees are an excellent way of creating additional privacy over the top of a 2 metre tall fence.  These pleached ornamental pear trees are 3 metres tall with a trunk or stem height of 1.8 metres and a frame of 1.2 metres high x 1 metre wide. We would recommend planting a row of these pleached ornamental pear trees at circa 1.5 metres apart. Prune just once per year to maintain the shape.  Other pleached trees here at Paramount Plants include pleached hornbeam trees, pleached Photinia Red Robin trees and Pleached Cherry Laurel trees.

This is a Pleached Chinese Fringe with a clear trunk and a square crown that’s trimmed around a bamboo frame ready for instant impact planting and / or above the fenceline screening. Loropetalum Chinense originates from Asia and was brought to the UK in 1880 by Victorian plant hunters. It’s commonly called the Chinese Fringe Plant for its white witch hazel type flowers with strappy fringed petals. Its flowers appear on branch tips in early spring emerging in February to March to brighten up the garden when not much else is in bloom. They carry a sweet scent and attract early waking bumblebees.Its dark-green year-round foliage has paler pink-tinged undersides and grows densely, overlapping to create a thick neighbour-proof screen that creates instant privacy above a fence line. You could use it to hide unsightly features and block traffic noise and pollution too.Height And Spread of Loropetalum Chinense PleachedLoropetalum Chinense can reach a height of three metres and is happy to be pruned into shape. To maintain the pleached form, trim once per year. How Hardy Is Loropetalum Chinense PleachedThis is a hardy plant native to the cold regions of Asia and capable of withstanding winter if its roots are well-drained.It prefers warm areas and flowers best in the south, though it will grow in cooler areas in a sunny spot with shelter from prevailing winds.

There’s no need to remove the frame because over time the crown will bush out into a cube and disguise it.Water well until established and apply a thick layer of mulch to the roots before flowering in late January or early February.
