When to trim a cedar hedgeThe most popular option to enclose a property is without a doubt the cedar hedge. Its thickness and greenness are both assets that play in its favor. The cedar hedge provides a natural intimacy and privacy from neighbors, compared to a typical fence. It is important to note that if left unmaintained, the cedar hedge may not reach its full potential. Cedar hedges may develop holes, stunting, and a chaotic shape, far from the manicured sanctuary of a well-groomed hedge. Instead of feeling a welcome relief in the presence of your cedar hedge, you may instead feel an exasperation at the sight of it. To ensure beautiful hedges, get them maintained!
You may be wondering when is the best time of year to do this? Late June through to late August is the ideal time of year to maintain your cedar hedge. At this stage, the shoots will have grown to an optimal range and will be ready for handling. On the contrary, times of year to avoid maintaining cedar hedges are spring and fall, or during severe heat waves. |
