A fast-growing evergreen conifer ideal for creating dense, year-round hedging or tall screens. Green Leylandii is known for its upright, columnar habit and lush, rich green foliage that responds well to regular clipping for a neat, formal hedge.
It establishes quickly and offers instant privacy, wind protection, and noise reduction — making it especially useful for boundary planting in large gardens or along roads. When trimmed once or twice a year, it forms a tidy, thick hedge that’s easy to manage and maintain at the desired height.
Plant in full sun to partial shade in fertile, well-drained soil. Tolerates most soil types and exposed positions, and is fully hardy across the UK.

15–20m high × 4–5m wide in 10–20 years
