Leylandii Hedging Plants

Browse Leylandii hedging plants for fast-growing evergreen screening, tall boundaries and wind protection. Our range includes green and golden Leylandii in substantial supplied heights for customers seeking an established appearance and quicker coverage. Compare the available sizes, foliage colours and prices below, and check the individual product pages for planting and spacing information.

Fast-Growing Leylandii Hedging

Leylandii is a vigorous evergreen conifer commonly planted to create tall hedges, privacy screens and windbreaks. Its dense foliage and fast rate of growth make it particularly relevant when quicker coverage is a priority.

Our current collection includes green Leylandii and Golden Leylandii in a selection of substantial starting heights. The best option depends on your preferred foliage colour, the coverage required at planting and the amount of ongoing maintenance you are prepared to undertake.

How Quickly Does Leylandii Grow?

Under suitable conditions, Leylandii can grow approximately 60–90cm per year. Actual growth varies according to the individual plant, soil, available moisture, weather, planting position and aftercare.

Its vigorous growth means Leylandii can establish a screen relatively quickly, but it also requires regular trimming to control its height and width. Consider the hedge’s intended maintained size before planting and leave enough room for future growth and access.

Green or Golden Leylandii?

Green Leylandii

Green Leylandii provides dense, deep-green evergreen foliage. It is a practical choice for customers who want a traditional conifer hedge, a tall boundary or a substantial privacy screen.

Golden Leylandii

Golden Leylandii provides similar evergreen structure with brighter golden-green foliage. It can add more colour to a boundary while still serving as an effective screening plant.

The collection may also include shaped Leylandii spirals. These are ornamental forms rather than conventional hedge plants. Customers looking for clipped statement plants should browse our topiary and shaped trees.

Choosing the Right Leylandii Height

Taller Leylandii plants can provide more immediate height and visual impact, but they also require suitable delivery access, careful handling and thorough watering during establishment.

Before ordering, consider:

  • The total length of the hedge
  • The required starting height
  • The intended maintained height and width
  • The recommended number of plants per metre
  • Access for delivery, unloading and planting
  • Space for future trimming and maintenance
  • Soil drainage and exposure

Use the measurements and planting-density guidance on the individual product page when calculating quantities. Product availability can vary, especially for the tallest specimens.

Are Leylandii Conifers or Hedging Plants?

Leylandii are conifer trees, but they are commonly planted closely together and maintained as an evergreen hedge. They therefore appear within both the Leylandii hedging journey and the broader Conifers collection.
