Leyland Cypress - x Cupressocyparis leylandii ‘Madeline Bettergreen’
Nothing puts up a tall green wall faster. x Cupressocyparis leylandii is a sterile hybrid conifer with dense flat sprays of foliage and a naturally columnar habit, and this selection is grown for uniform rich green colour that holds through winter. Planted as a row it closes into a solid screen within a couple of seasons, but it must be trimmed on schedule, because it will not reshoot from bare brown wood.
Why Leyland Cypress
Growth speed: Young plants commonly extend close to a metre a year in good conditions, faster than any comparable screening conifer.
Density to the ground: Trimmed from the start it holds foliage right down to soil level rather than going leggy.
Uniform clone: Cutting grown plants match each other in colour and vigour, which keeps a long hedge even.
Wind and coastal tolerance: Handles exposed sites and moderate salt laden wind better than most hedging conifers.
Sterile hybrid: It sets no viable seed, so it does not spread beyond where it is planted.
Ideal Applications
Tall boundary screen: Blocks a two storey overlooking window where a fence cannot reach.
Rural windbreak: Used in single or double rows around orchards, vineyards and stock yards.
Formal clipped hedge: Readily held at 2 to 4m with two trims a year for a flat green wall.
Instant privacy: Advanced sizes give immediate height where waiting is not an option.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 1 to 1.5m
Spacing (feature/avenue): 4 to 6m
Best Planting Season: Autumn or spring; autumn gives a full cool season of root growth before summer
Soil & Drainage: Any reasonably free draining soil, from sand to clay loam; persistent waterlogging invites root rot and sudden branch death
Establishment Care: Water twice a week through the first summer, ideally by dripline along the row, and mulch the full length rather than individual plants. Start light trimming in the first year and never cut back into leafless brown wood, because those sections stay bare permanently.
