Leyland Cypress Evergreens for Privacy Screening

The Leyland Cypress is a popular evergreen used as a "Living Fence" screen. The Leyland Cypress is happiest in the full sun and ‪@PryorsNursery‬ recommends it be planted in such locations only, if the growth rate is to be achieved. This vigorous plant can almost be seen growing as it stretches its branches to the sky in its quest for the clouds. In virtually no time will this hardy and attractive conifer form and shape itself into the coveted "Living Fence". This soft-needled evergreen's leaves are medium green in color. This hardy tree is pyramidal to cylindrical in shape and it can grow as much as 1.5 feet per year or more. Its care is simple, but does demand water in the hot months when young. These trees can grow very tall at maturity but can be pruned indefinitely to retain the desired shape.

While no plant is trouble free, the Leyland Cypress attracts few pests in the landscape. The insect which may be present on the Leyland is the bagworm. No preventative measures are necessary. Treatment is only needed when the insect's presence is detected. They start appearing around July 4 and are about the size of a grain of rice. Products containing BT are effective against the bagworm when they are in this early stage. BT is a bacteria that attacks the insect. Follow label instructions to the letter.
