Landscape Uses
Agonis ‘Lemon & Lime‘ pbr is best used as a multiple screening hedge along fence lines or drive ways. Clipping and trimming foliage is the key to maintaining the vibrant colour. This plant is suitable for use as a pleached hedge, where plants are planted in rows and the lower growth is removed to reveal the attractive straight trunks. The top is then clipped into a continuous long block. Low shrubs or grasses can be planted underneath. This provides a lovely ‘Modern Native’ look.
