Don't wish to sound a discordant note but I've seen small sub-shrubs very like this for a few years in the garden centres. They flower for much of...
Try Evergreen Exterior Services in Purley.Things to look out for:1. SEE THEM FIRST! 2. As aboveThey are often imported without care as they...
You could try one of those Willow fedges, you buy hem by the linear metre I believe. Grow like stink and very dense, though not evergreen.
