Book excerpt: It's reasonable to want to make one's home a serene oasis, a safe haven from hustle and bustle of a busy life. Why, then, is it so hard to make such a space a reality? Between street noise, boisterous neighbors, stray animals, wandering pets, headlights, and streetlamps, it is nearly impossible to feel secluded at home these days. High stockade fences and masonry walls can feel austere and uninviting; no one wants to be resented by their neighbors. And zoning laws and building codes mean you might have to inch your way through a maze of red tape before you even break ground. Living fences are the solution. In addition to blocking unsightly views and providing some well-deserved privacy, versatile and graceful screens of living plants are a natural and aesthetically pleasing alternative to man-made fences. In this illustrated guide, celebrated garden and landscape designer Ogden Tanner provides all the information you need to select, plant, and maintain an array hedges, vines, shrubs, and espaliers to create a verdant and relaxing atmosphere around your house. With detailed information on over 100 species of plants, Living Fences is a one-stop manual for beautiful and functional garden design.

Book excerpt: A practical, ordinary person's guide to choosing, planting, and caring for the world's most popular plants, Shrubs & Hedges delivers all the know-how you'll need to grow beautiful, healthy shrubs. Whether they're flowering shrubs or evergreen hedges, these long-lived plants fill a lot of space in our landscapes; yet they don't capture as much attention as perennials, annuals, and even trees. The front doors and picture windows of millions of houses world-wide are adorned by shrubs. Despite their ubiquity, selecting and maintaining shrubs remains a mystery to many. Shrubs are all-too-often inappropriately pruned into "meatball" shapes, or alternatively, left to become an overgrown tangle of branches. But as you'll discover in the pages of Shrubs & Hedges, when cared for properly, these workhorse plants have much to offer. They mask foundations, delineate property lines, increase privacy, stabilize soils, provide food for wildlife, and add beauty and interest to the landscape. It’s time for shrubs to take center stage. Shrubs & Hedges eliminates the ambiguities of shrub selection and care by offering: Advice on how to pick the best shrubs for your growing conditions Plant profiles of both dependable classic shrubs and new rising stars Step-by-step propagation instructions for making more shrubs—for free! Shrub identification tips A lesson on the value of hedges and hedgerows The best shrubs for pollinators and other wildlife Pruning illustrations and tips to maximize shrub performance and health Tips for designing with shrubs Drawing on her decades of experience in the plant-care and landscape industries, author and horticulture educator Eva Monheim proves you don’t have to be a “gardener” to see the value in this extensive group of plants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hedges, in the broadest sense of the term, is any narrow surface of land, which is permanently occupied by plant sets of one or more species. From a different angle, it could be said that a hedge is the set of woody plants planted in relatively close, close or very close distances to form with or without pruning a plant barrier or wall. The first approach is quite open and from a certain point of view, more complete. And this, since it allows the inclusion under the term Hedges even in those that do not contain woody species. Thus, among the Hedges, one can count on those created by various grasses - some of which have extremely interesting functional and other characteristics. The plant populations planted along the border or on the boundary for fencing purposes are called hedges. The low-growing perennial plant grown on the border, plots, beds, lawns, and pathways are called hedge plants. Each plant plays a vital role in ornamental horticulture. A hedge is usually the shrubs. They play an important role in the structure and character of the garden and provide many practical uses. It may be ornamental or protective or both. These are also necessary to restrict the garden from a public road and adjacent gardens, particularly in flat gardens. Fast-growing hedges are a cheap and time-effective way to establish a fully-formed garden feature or screening plant, with all of our hedges boasting an average growth rate of 40-60cm per annum. Before you know it, your hedge will be at its desired height and will have transformed the look of your garden. Despite their impressive growth rate, fast-growing hedging is actually a relatively low-maintenance choice, often needing to be pruned just twice a year to keep it tidy and to shape. If you're looking for a hedge to bring privacy and security to your garden, fast-growing hedging is an excellent choice, as they can grow up to 5m in height. Fast-growing Conifer and evergreen hedging plants are a particularly popular option for adding extra privacy, although our team is happy to help you choose a fast-growing hedge that is right for you. Planting fast-growing hedging is also a wonderful way to attract more wildlife to your garden, as it provides food and shelter to birds. Want to discover more? Grab a copy of this book now.

A hedge or hedgerow is a line of closely spaced shrubs and sometimes trees, planted and trained to form a barrier or to mark the boundary of an area, such as between neighbouring properties. Hedges used to separate a road form adjoining fields or one field from another, and of sufficient age to incorporate larger trees, are known as hedgerows. Often, they serve as wind breaks to improve conditions for the adjacent crops, as in bocage country. When clipped and maintained, hedges are also a simple form of topiary.
