Bushes, hedges and shrubs
How we look after bushes, hedges and shrub borders.
Shrubs
Shrub beds are looked after seasonally, and we have a programme of work for regular grounds maintenance.
Hedges
We cut back hedges once a year. Hedge pruning is restricted by nesting birds and we only cut them back after the birds have finished breeding, unless there's a danger or the foliage is causing an obstruction.
