About Me

Hedge-Laying.
If you have a neglected hedge in need if attention it may be best to lay it.
Laying helps to rejuvenate the hedge by generating new growth from the base of the laid stems there after creating a good thick hedge again.
A laid-hedge is also very pleasing to the eye creating a living fence.
It is also very beneficial to wildlife creation a good habitat for small birds and mammals. Hedgerows are the wildlife corridors of the countryside!
