SHAPE

If you’re using a hedge to line a path, hide a brick wall or gain some privacy from neighbours or street traffic, straight lines are a must. Take a leaf (pun intended!) out of a brickies book and run a string line along the edge you wish to shape so you know where to trim to.

This works on new hedges or established ones, though taller ones you might want to adjust the string more than once to keep it consistent.

Mature hedges can look even tidier with the edges rounded off & for your younger, smaller hedges, use a that are a little smaller, motorised shears are ideal.

Just check that your hedge trimmer blades are sharp and clean before you get started to get the best results.
