Beech is the perfect candidate for hedging and has traditionally been used on many large estates . It can be grown to almost any height as a hedge or privacy screen and will maintain a good density and tidy shape, usually only needing to be clipped once or twice a year. Over winter, Beech tends to hold onto most of its dead leaves, and sheds them in the spring when the new shoots start to appear, helping to keep privacy to a maximum.
Holly has just about every quality you need to make an effective secure boundary. The evergreen leaves will form a permanent dense screen for privacy, the spiky edges to them will also make a good deterrent. Berries in the winter add a touch of colour and give all year interest, and the birds will appreciate a tasty source of food too! Easy to grow and maintain, either formally, or left to grow to give a more natural look.
