Lonicera nitida
Lonicera nitida, commonly known as the Boxleaf Honeysuckle, is a hardy shrub often used instead of Buxus as a hedge. It carries dense, upright branches which host small and glossy, dark green leaves. New growth has attractive, purple-black edges as it grows to 2 m tall and 1 m wide. Lonicera nitida makes for a lovely backdrop for smaller plants and is commonly trimmed into a hedge and used for topiary.

Photinia Red Robin
Photinia Red Robin is a popular hedging plant due to its bright and colourful foliage. New growth is bright red and ages to become mid-dark green which results in a glossy plant with dual colouring through spring and summer. This quick growing evergreen can reach 4 m tall and the same wide but is commonly trimmed to sizes less than this. Photinia Red Robin is commonly grown as an attractive and dense hedge but is also well suited to being used for shelter and screening.
