    Hi,
    Im buying a new property which currently has this hedge around the front garden, I would like to allow it to grow to about 5-6feet. It is currently about 3-4 feet.

    1. I don't know the type of plant though, can somebody help identify it for me please?

    2. How high could this grow if left?

    3. What would be the best care and maintenance to grow this taller?

    Thanks!,

    Hi Delay,
    You have a Euonymus japonicus hedge there, it will easily grow to 6 foot. Just keep the sides trimmed and allow it to reach the height you require. An annual feed or mulch will give it a bit of a boost.
