Most appropriate hedging for a public Cemetery

[difflock]

Pulling out overage misshapen Lellandi, want to plant between an Avenue and boundary wall, about 3.0m wide strip of grass/soil.

I fancied a row of traditional Irish Yew, but the Boss fancies a hedge.

Thoughts?

Thanks

English Yew or Beech / Hornbeam i'd say

Just what i was thinking when i saw the thread title

But then the man is in Ireland so Irish Yew would be 'traditional'!

buid a wall to 'keep em in at night'

 

Yew would be my first choice, so long as the ground dosn't get waterlogged

 

otherwise as per above suggestions, beech or hornbeam make nice hedges

Yeah,

It is funny I would unhesitatingly say Irish Yew (& prob the same genus/breed/specis as an English Yew?), but choose to describe myself a British rather than Irish,

(Ulsterish not yet being recognised, ye unnerstan, well apparently not.)

Ps

The gardener, independantly and unbeknownest to me favours a row of Yews, planted spaced apart, to grow into individual trees.

With (and also my nebulous hazy idea) Narssci, OK Daffodils planted below and around.

Wot was my very idea in the first instance.

Well if I'm going to tread on sensitive toes I'll suggest alternate English and Irish yew.

Ye ud only end up with hybridized Anglo-Irish Yew, unwanted by either "side".
