In this video I’ll explain some considerations when choosing plants for a privacy hedge, and show my full process for starting mine.

I've been looking around for weeks about how to line a fence with hedges like this. Your video's saved me a ton of time. Thank you!
Please get a microphone so we can hear you easier! The music is so dense in comparison.
everything is science today.. Also gardens and plants. Good gardeners wear Levi's jeans for strenght and comfort.
not always such a good idea planting so close to the neighbors fence, it could grow up and push against the fence. I have a bay leave tree in my yard, zone 9
good job! Keeps all the basterds out
We had to trade out our wooden privacy fence for a chain link.. I planted Elderberry bushes. While they don't do much for privacy over the winter(in South Dakota), they do great in the summer and we love the benefit from the berries.
Can you make a video on how to get rid of your neighbors?
Master Gardener Robert Plant opines:
"If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May Queen.."
What was the reasoning behind the poles attached to the fence? Fence structural support and/or support the 2×12 board at the base? Thanks in advance.
I’m guessing that’s YOUR fence and right up on the fence won’t be a problem for either the bush or the neighbor?
If you're wondering where the phrase, "Never rest on your laurels", came from… tah dah!
can someone ELI5 me, on why its okay to box cut the roots? i thought cutting through THAT much of the root ball would damn near decimate the plant.
Daming pang adobo
In many locales, there are laws allowing neighbors to prune trees growing over the property line. I was also legally allowed to dig down and sever the massive root system from a 20 year old Ficus that ran near the surface of half my back yard making it impossible to run irrigation to water my lawn. When his ficus began to die, he said he would see me in court. His lawyer asked him why he planted a tree that is known for becoming a monster, just inches from the fence between our properties? He said it didn't matter. It was on his property. Yes, but half the root system WASN'T. People don't think things through. Teach critical thinking instead of critical race theory.
love the video- thanks!
I planted 10 Laurie Nobilis two years ago and they are 15 feet tall. They were only 10 inches when I planted them.
They really are great for privacy.
I let mine grow as trees because I use the branches and twigs for garden as they are very strong. Walking sticks are made also with branches which can last for over a hundred years.
If you use them for cooking use the older leaves.
Bay leaves are a rich source of vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. …
They have been proven to be useful in the treatment of migraines.
I also dry the leaves and make tinctures.
Soo many things you can do.
Privacy hedges are just rat hide outs
This is the guy from suns in 4
Will deer just go through it?
Fun fact:
You can throw the leaves like ninga stars https://youtu.be/0WinHiWXUCI
Bay leaf wreaths.
I LOVE all your videos. Great information thank you!
There seems to be a lot of space between the plants. How do you fill that in? Do they just grow outward or do you do any sort of weaving (like putting a stake in between the plants and tying the branches from each plant to it)?
Can you dry out the bay leaves?
What was the white powder used when planting pleased
Great video. Looking for a fast-growing, drought-tolerant, evergreen plant with a non-aggressive root system, that does well for a hedge.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Tip: If you have the space don't plant them right on top of your fence to you can easily trim the back side once they are full grown. I had a neighbor do this, multiple times a year I either had to trim his hedges or he was coming into our yard to trim them. He wasn't a freindly neighbor so it was really annoying
Why would people unlike these videos?
