How to Shape Hedges Round

Don’t cut too far from or too close to the bud you want to encourage. Don’t cut branches flush against the trunk. Don’t cut more than one-fourth of the plant’s height in any one season. Don’t be afraid to prune — your plant actually needs it to remove dead wood and to take on the shape you want.

How do you trim a straight hedge?

Using a hedge trimmer, cut vertically down to the height marked on the first and second cane. Then cut between them horizontally to cut out the box shape. Do not cut between the second and third canes and move on to the third and fourth canes. Repeat the process until you have worked along the entire hedge.

How do you shape a boxwood hedge?

Thin out boxwood hedges to keep them in their natural state. Cut back alternating branches to their base and remove any dead or dying branches starting in the first year with a pair of pruning shears. The result will be a hedge that grows in with more open space and a wild, more bush-like appearance.

What do you put at the bottom of a hedge?

Compost (garden or spent mushroom), leaf mould, well-rotted manure, wood or bark chippings or even seaweed all make excellent mulches for use not only under hedges but across the garden.

How do you thicken a hedge?

Trimming a hedge in a wedge shape that is wider at the bottom will make it grow thicker by enabling more even regrowth. Cut back the hedge at the top to steer growth to the sides of your bushes and use organic fertiliser to encourage the plant’s development.

How do you fix a patchy hedge?

With a narrow gap, a far quicker solution is to cheat. Remove the dead plant, push in a few rustic poles and weave side-shoots from neighbouring plants through till they meet in the middle. Another alternative is to remove the dead plant and put in a tree instead that grows up above the hedge-line.

How do you make a topiary shape?

If you are creating a ball topiary, use wire and ties to create a large, round, open circle. With one hand, place the circle around your topiary, and with the other, snip away any branches that extend past that circle. Move the circle around as you move, and you’ll end up with a perfect ball topiary every time.
