Which planting distance should be kept in cypress?
So that the cypress hedge quickly becomes a dense screen, many gardening friends plant the trees far too densely. However, this takes its revenge later, because the cypresses then have not enough space to unfold. How to find the right planting distance.
Planting distance to buildings, garden paths and neighboring properties
As a single tree, the cypress is particularly good if sufficient distance to other plants and buildings is maintained. It should be at least 1.5 meters planting distance.
Planting distance in the hedge
If you are in a hurry, plant three cypresses per meter. The planting distance is then about 30 centimeters.
If you can spend more time, two plants per meter are enough. The planting distance should be about 50 centimeters.
Tips
By regularly cutting the hedge you can make it that the trees branch well. At first it makes sense to cut the cypress hedge twice a year.
