How fast does Leylandii grow?

In good UK conditions, green Leylandii puts on 60–90cm a year. That makes it the quickest way we know to get a tall, dense screen.

The speed cuts both ways. Left untrimmed, Leylandii keeps going, and most neighbour disputes start once a hedge passes about 2m. Plan on one cut a year.

Leylandii or laurel?

Choose Leylandii if you want height fast and you’re happy to trim every year. Cherry laurel grows 40–60cm a year and Portuguese laurel 30–50cm, so both are slower and need less upkeep.

If you’d rather a broad-leaved hedge that takes longer to fill out, look at our potted cherry laurel hedging. Our Leylandii hedging guide compares them side by side.

How many plants do you need?

Spacing sets how fast your hedge closes up and how many plants you buy:

• 60cm apart: quickest screen
• 90cm apart: our standard spacing
• 120cm apart: lowest cost, slower to fill

As a rough guide, 10m of hedge at 90cm spacing takes about 12 plants. Plant at least 60cm in from your boundary so you can trim both sides from your own land.

Planting

Pot-grown Leylandii can go in whenever the ground isn’t frozen or waterlogged.

Looking for gold?

We also grow Gold Leylandii (Castlewellan Gold) at 30–45cm. Stock is limited right now, so check the product page for which packs are available.

FAQ

How do I keep Leylandii at a set height?
Trim it every year and keep it at or below about 2m. Once it gets away from you, bringing it back down is hard work.

When should I trim Leylandii?
Between April and the end of August. Give it the main cut in late summer.

Can I cut back into the brown wood?
No. Leylandii won’t regrow from bare brown wood, so always leave green growth on the face of the hedge.

What size are the plants?
This page sells 35–50cm pot-grown plants. Our 100–120cm line is currently out of stock.

Do you deliver to Ireland?
Yes. Delivery is free to mainland UK, Northern Ireland and Ireland on all orders.
