How Often Should Hedges and Conifers Be Cut in Derby and Nottingham?

It depends on the species, growth rate and the standard you're trying to maintain.

What affects frequency

• The hedge species (fast-growing conifers versus slower species)
• How formal or tidy you want the finish
• The time of year and growing season
• Whether the hedge is being maintained or restored from an overgrown state

General guidance

Fast-growing conifer hedges such as Leylandii often need cutting more than once a year to stay under control, while slower-growing species may only need an annual trim. A hedge that's already overgrown will usually need a more significant reduction first, followed by regular maintenance to keep it under control afterwards.
