Flowering Hedge 'Emma'

Height at maturity: Approx 2m (6.6').
Interest: All year.
Planting distance: Approximately every 1.5m (4.9').Although when planting a screening hedge of only 1 species we would advise planting every 80cm (31.5"), in the case of a mixed flowering hedge we are looking for each plant to grow without competing with its neighbour and give its best.
Pruning: A light pruning with shears after flowering is better. Blossoms will be even more beautiful.


Principles:
One has to see the "flowering hedge" or "4 season's hedge" like a painting canvas. As the succession of the seasons goes on, the painting changes, the colours and the scents vary. It must be a permanently interesting display.

Find each plant's specification:
Abelia grandiflora, beautiful pale pink- white blossom throughout summer
Border Forsythia (Forsythia intermedia), early golden yellow blossom
Buddleia (Buddleia Davidii) 'Nanho purple', abundant and fragrant blossom from July through to October, highly attractive to butterflies
Heavenly Bamboo (Nandina domestica), beautiful white blossom throughout spring and summer, followed by extremely decorative red berries
Laurustinus (Viburnum tinus), white blossom from November through to April, followed by bluish-black berries
Milkflower Cotoneaster (Cotoneaster lacteus), white blossom in June-July, followed by red berries in October
Weigelia Bristol Ruby (Weigelia florida 'Bristol Ruby'), abundant blossom of carmine red bell shaped flowers throughout summer
Variegated Pink Weigelia (Weigelia florida 'Variegata'), abundant blossom of pink bell shaped flowers throughout summer
