A hedge plan on your own photo: see when it screens

Pick from the hedges that suit your spot, and we show them in front of your fence summer by summer until they reach the height you want, and in winter too. Along with which size to buy, how many plants, for how much, and how to plant them.

  • Real shop prices, size by size
  • By which summer it screens, worked out from sources
  • Whatever would freeze or dry out in your spot is left out

How it works

  1. 1 Enter the hedge's length, the height you want and the spot: light, soil, region, whether it must screen in winter too.
  2. 2 The hedge planner shows the clipped hedges that suit your spot, size by size: price per metre, total, and by which summer it reaches the height. This is free.
  3. 3 Choose up to three, upload a photo of the fence, and mark the two ends of the hedge and the gates on it.
  4. 4 You can see the first hedge in the summer before it screens for free. The full plan has all your hedges, with every picture and the planting plan.

What's in the hedge plan

An example: 6.5 m of cherry laurel, 180 cm tall, in front of the example garden's back fence.

Design

Up to three hedges of your choice on your own photo, each summer by summer until it reaches the height you want, and that winter: you see when it closes up, and whether it screens in winter too.

Shopping list

Which size to buy, how many plants, and what it costs per plant, per metre and in all, from the offers in your country.

Growth

The hedge's height year by year, allowing for the slower first two years while it establishes and for the formative cutting back.

Planting plan

Spacing, one row or two, how far from the fence, where the gate stays open, and when and how to plant.

Clipping and risks

When and how often to clip it, whether it regrows from old wood, and what to watch for: drought, fungal disease, pests, toxicity.

What is behind the plan

Verified data on 616 plants and gardening rules. The picture only shows what we chose based on them.

  • Right for your spot

    We filter by light, soil, watering and the winters of your region: what would freeze or dry out in your garden never makes the list.

  • Size, price and time together

    For every size on sale we work out the price per metre and in which summer it reaches the height you want: you see how much a smaller plant saves, and how long you wait for it.

  • Screens in winter too, if needed

    If it has to screen in winter as well, only evergreen and semi-evergreen hedges remain, or those that keep their dry leaves until spring, like hornbeam and beech.

  • Risks by genus

    Thuja turns brown in drought, firethorn and hawthorn can catch fire blight, yew rots in standing water: we gathered from sources what to watch out for.

  • Clipping you can keep up

    How often and when to clip it, and whether it regrows from old wood if a clipping is missed or it has to be cut back hard.

  • Safe for the family

    If children, dogs or cats use the garden, plants that are toxic to them are left out.
