When to trim box hedges – best time to do it to encourage ‘bushy’ summer growth

Young box hedges

For young plants, the RHS recommended that stems should be cut back by up to one-third in May, to “encourage new and bushy growth”.

If your hedging is particularly fast-growing, further trimming can be done between May and August when required.

Cutting back excess growth from young hedging is particularly important to help the plant reach the desired size.

You should aim to reduce congested areas where stems are overlapping in order to free up space for fresh leaves to appear.

Not only will this leave young box hedges looking fuller, but they will be healthier too.
