How Close to the Property Line Can I Plant Hedges?
As a courtesy to your neighbor, you want to avoid planting hedges that will encroach onto their property.
To determine where to plant your hedge, you will need to know the mature growth habit of the particular shrub you intend to plant. For example, if you plan to install a shrub with a mature width of 6 feet, you can plant your shrub 3 feet from the property line and it should mature right up to the line and still give room for shrub trimming as needed.
