responds to the natural plant growth and
allows the hedge to thrive optimally. During
cutting, only the new annual growths are
reduced and thus a dense branching and a
good screen will develop.
1. Cut the sides of a hedge rst.
To do this, move the hedge trim-
mer in the direction of growth
from bottom to top. If you cut
down from the top, the thinner
branches will move out, which
may result in some areas having
sparse growth or holes.
2. Cut the top edge, according to
taste, in a at shape, roof shape
or rounded shape
3. Trim young plants to the required
shape. The main growth should
remain undamaged until the
hedge has reached the planned
height. All other shoots are
lopped off to half size.
Care of Free-Growing Hedges:
Free-growing hedges are not shaped when
cut, although they must be regularly main-
tained so the hedge does not become too high.
