Cupressocyparis leylandii, commonly known as Leylandii, is a fast-growing evergreen conifer prized for its dense, feathery foliage and exceptional ability to create tall, living screens. Often used as a hedge or windbreak, Leylandii forms a thick, uniform barrier that remains lush and green year-round. Its rapid growth and tolerance for various soils make it a practical solution for gardeners seeking privacy or shelter quickly.
Despite its reputation for vigorous growth, Leylandii is easy to maintain with regular pruning, ensuring it remains tidy and within desired boundaries. Its evergreen foliage, reliability, and adaptability have made it a staple in UK gardens, especially for hedging purposes.
