Hi
We have moved to a property with a massive laurel hedge its approx 21 foot tall and at least 6 foot deep. Any trimming we do just seems to encourage even more growth. If we just leave it how large could it get?
Thank you

Our reached the electric wires before we cut it back.

My neighbour has laurels as a boundary hedge between our gardens which also has brambles, sycamore and elderberry saplings tangled up in it. I hate it with a vengeance but I'm stuck with it sadly.
Me too with a good mix of holly to make it even more painful

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
I have my own holly tree (not my choice, it came with the house when I bought it) and I have to crawl underneath it to get at the hedge so I can try and murder it. Grrrrr !!!
