Hard pruning works for laurel
Hard pruning works for laurel
23rd July 2021
The laurel hedge at North Moreton was pruned in mid June, just before the RHS exams, and was given a pretty hard cut to make up for earlier over-hesitancy by students who were worried about cutting too much off... In a month it has gone from very bare stems to a mass of healthy new leaves, proving that you can keep laurel hedges well under control with hard pruning where you need to.
