Hi everyone, and thanks in advance for the advice.
I have a row of privet hedge running along part of my yard that is approximately 60' long. They were way out of control, too tall and 'leggy'. I cut them back to about 12" from the ground last weekend.
My question is, did I cut them far enough down? What is left is quite massive and it looks to me like they could stand to go down by 1/2 again. My goal is to have them come back and keep them under control.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
