Dwarf Burford Holly Hedge question.?
I am looking to plant a evergreen Hedge around the back of my house. The Hedge will be about 550ft long and I would like it to be around 5ft in height. It would also be nice not to have to worry about shearing it into shape all the time.
The Dwarf Burford Holly seems to be the perfect shrub for the job. From what I read it seems to be the right size, shape and have a decent growth rate.
So my questions are: Is this a good hedge plant? If so, with a 4 – 6ft spread how far apart should I plant them? What is the growth rate?(nothing I read gives an actual growth rate just states medium) An finally, How much searing do they need? (they do not seem to need much if any)
Also I live in Maryland.
Thanks
one of the best. depends on size; 1 gallon=2′-3′ apart; 3 gal. 3′-4′. rate=6″-8″ a year. no, do not shear. wait until desired height and thin
