Herring A conifer hedge that's been left unmanaged for a few years can quickly outgrow its original purpose, blocking light and dominating a garden.
Your options for a tall conifer hedge
- Height reduction, bringing the hedge back to a more practical level
- Width management, cutting back the sides without changing the height
- A staged reduction carried out over more than one visit for a severely overgrown hedge
- Complete removal, where reduction isn't a sensible long-term option
The key consideration with conifers is old brown wood — most species won't reliably regenerate if cut back beyond the green growth, so we assess exactly how far a hedge can go before recommending a reduction.
