Hedge laid in Midland style A hedge about three years after being re-laid. Hedgelaying (or hedge laying) is the process of partially cutting through and then bending the stems of a line of shrubs or small trees, near ground level, without breaking them, so as to encourage them to produce new growth from the base and create a living ‘stock proof fence’. [1]
The society runs hedgelaying competitions and exhibitions in the UK, [5] and an optional accreditation scheme for hedgelayers. [6] Charles III is a patron of the organization, [ 7 ] and in December 2021 he presented awards on behalf of the society at Highgrove estate .

Cornish hedges suffer from the effects of tree roots, burrowing rabbits, rain, wind, farm animals and people. Eventually the hedge sides lose their batter, bulge outwards and stones fall. How often repairs are needed depends on how well the hedge was built, its stone, and what has happened to it since it was last repaired.
The flora of Scotland is an assemblage of native plant species including over 1,600 vascular plants, more than 1,500 lichens and nearly 1,000 bryophytes.The total number of vascular species is low by world standards but lichens and bryophytes are abundant and the latter form a population of global importance.
Ligustrum lucidum, the broad-leaf privet, [2] Chinese privet, [3] glossy privet, [4] tree privet [5] or wax-leaf privet, is a species of flowering plant in the olive family Oleaceae, native to the southern half of China and naturalized in many places. [6] The name "Chinese privet" is also used for Ligustrum sinense.
The seeds are very small (about 0.2 mm) with the fine hairs aiding dispersal; they require bare soil to germinate. [3] [4] The two varieties are: [3] S. c. var. caprea - lowland regions throughout the range, leaves thinly hairy above, densely hairy below, 5–12 cm long, stipules persistent until autumn; S. c. var. sphacelata (Sm.) Wahlenb.
The roots of privet can reproduce asexually through root suckers. [5] This vegetative reproduction makes privet difficult and costly to control because root fragments left in the soil can sprout and grow new plants. [5] One reason why privet is so invasive in the United States is because it has few native shrub competitors. [11]
