    you supply the meat,beer and coins for the bbq and we'll tell you where it's at
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you

    Some amazing work by the gardeners there. I'd love to be able to go to France and Italy one day to see gardens like these in person.

    The one used in that pic as mentioned is the Hornbeam tree.

    http://www.onlinetrees.com.au/p/4081...-hornbeam.html

    Knowing teh variable nature of some Pittosporums (Silver Sheen) I don't know if I'd use one for a long term hedge project.

    The English also use Yew a lot, better known here as Conifers. The conifer 'Leighton Green' is something that is readily available here and would probably lend itself well to being trained into an arch, probably using a steel arch to train them over as they grow together.

    remember the faster it grows the more you need to prune
