Evergreen Trees as Urban Home Hedge

Planting evergreen trees as hedge for our homes brings a lot of benefits. Foremost among them is it gives a sense of privacy especially when you live in urban areas. Evergreen trees as hedge are also good barriers against wind, noise and pollution which usually plague city dwellers. Plus, putting evergreen hedge gives you protection as some of them have thorns which can surely prick intruders.

At Greenshutters Hedge Centres, you will find varieties of evergreen trees to choose as hedge for your home. Take a look at some of their evergreen trees in their nurseries:

  • Leylandii – the fastest evergreen tree good for hedge screens. Even in poor soil, Leylandii have been known to grow to heights of 15 metres. Having thick rapid foliage, Leylandii is a great way of enforcing privacy.
