planting under hedge
Im planting a cherry laurel hedge at side of neighbours side as theres only three foot fence and id like to block it off at somepoint
Due plant 4 feet cherry laurels and im wondering if i could plant anything underbeath them in a border ? A friend said i cant due to amount shade the laurels have is this right
Its just other two sides garden will look great with flowers when im finished doing them laurel side be quite plain so something under it would look good

Yeah we did think of that
We have cherry laurel hedge at front of house and love that
Its only three feet thou and mixes well with other plants
So wanted use for back to ,we plenty of light and we wont have it too high the garden is total sun trap too so not sure what put with it
You need something pretty tough that will survive a fairly dry area. Alchemilla mollis will do or a vinca or some geranium macrohizzum. I think nepeta, London Pride and lavender would do as well if it was sunny.
Remember to keep them all well watered until they get established.
