Hedging
Hi, we have recently moved and the back garden is a blank canvas. I have planted olive tress along the back fence to create a raised pivot for screening. However I would like to plant a low growing/dwarf hedging but would like something that flowers to attract wildlife/insects and/or come winter has berries for the birds etc.
Can anyone give me advice on what would be the best....hebes?!
I am relatively new to gardening - also I live near the coast and the garden does have full sun come the summer.
Any advice would be great. Thanks

Sacococca, Christmas Box , would be great and v easy to grow as long as it is not too dry. Different varieties tho Confusa seems recommended. It flowers in winter, early spring with a strong perfume so great for bees. Evergreen,which is another bonus, and it would look super with the olives.
