Cuprocyparis leylandii ‘Pyramidalis’ – Tall Evergreen Hedging for Rapid Screening
Leylandii ‘Pyramidalis’ is a strong, fast-growing evergreen conifer, supplied here at an impressive 300–350cm height for immediate screening and structure. Known for its vigorous growth and dense foliage, it is one of the most effective choices for creating tall, privacy hedging in a short time.
The rich green foliage forms a thick, uniform barrier, making it ideal for reducing overlooking, blocking wind, and defining boundaries. Its naturally upright habit allows it to establish quickly into a continuous hedge when planted in a line.
Supplied in a large 35-litre pot, these mature plants provide instant presence in the garden, significantly reducing the time needed to achieve a full hedge compared to smaller specimens.
Highly adaptable and tolerant of a wide range of conditions, Leylandii thrives in sun or partial shade and performs well in most well-drained soils. With regular trimming, it can be maintained at a desired height and width, making it suitable for both formal and informal hedging.
Fast, reliable, and practical, Leylandii ‘Pyramidalis’ is an excellent choice for those looking to create immediate privacy and structure on a larger scale.
