Trimming Tips For A Clean And Tidy Hedge

 

Quickly shape and maintain shrubs, bushes, and hedges with sharp, comfortable Hedge Shears.

To Promote healthy growth and strong branching at the base with full, dense foliage throughout, select and maintain the desired hedge shape before plantings grow to the desired height.

Natural rounded shapes are generally more successful and require less frequent trimming each season.

Formal straight-line hedges require more frequent trimming and maintenance each season.

Individual plants can be shaped and encouraged to merge together to form excellent natural screens, fences, or edgings.

Shape hedges narrower at the top so that sunlight can reach the bottom branches. This prevents lower branches from being shaded out and becoming thin at the base.

Stretching a string as a guide makes trimming formal shaped hedges faster and easier.
