Hydrangea hedge

I've just dug up my gooseberry hedge...sick
Of pigeons eating all the berries.

My blackcurrant hedge is fabulous in the summer...doesn't screen much as I do take out a fair few stems. One has died, but I've got varieties that fruit at different times.

I've got a mixed native hedge. Love it for the screening, I've not pruned it correctly really as last year I used it for cut flowers....but it's fabulous for the wildlife it brings.

I can't grow hydrangeas here - my ground is too dry, they just droop in the heat.

I would love a rose hedge....
