The Edible Hedge

Hedges create privacy, help to form microclimates within the garden, screen ugly views and help to define areas of your garden into rooms, but did you ever think of using these to provide you with food for your table too? These are our most popular edible hedging plants. You can also use climbers where space is limited. Think outside the square and create a garden that is beautiful, functional and productive.
