Hedging Plants for Sun

The best hedging plants for sunny sites can be drought tolerant and handle hot, dry environments, though we don’t have to worry about these conditions very often in the UK. Sometimes, the idea of ‘full sun plants’ can be misunderstood, so it’s important to realise that plants suited to a sunny position do not need continuous sunlight;  between 6 and 8 hours of sun a day is a healthy amount of exposure. Drought tolerant plants can handle slightly longer in direct sunlight.

Many plants for sunny gardens possess certain features which allow them to thrive in unfiltered sunlight. These include: an oily coating on the leaves, which minimises water loss; leaves and stems that can store water or deep root systems that reach water reserves far below the soil surface.

When planted in the correct position, you can rest assured that our hedging plants for full sun will develop wonderfully, without the need to worry about the foliage becoming wilted or scorched.
