The use of hedges in your garden has numerous advantages.  They can be used to create privacy in your garden; as dividers to create different areas in your garden; to muffle noise and act as a windbreak; to create mazes; to attract birds and butterflies to your garden; to hide ugly walls; to improve your security around your home and garden; and to act as a green background for other plants in your garden.  Hedge plants are relatively cheap and low-maintenance.

The maintenance required once you have planted your hedge plants, involves pruning when the plants are still small.  This will encourage the plant to grow dense.  You also need to pinch the tips, while the plants are still actively growing to promote the growth of side shoots.

If you want to plant a hedge for security – along your border walls – you can use a paper flower bougainvillea (bougainvillea glabra), num-num (carissa bispinosa) or natal plum (carissa macrocarpa).

Other plants that can be used as security measures include aloes, cacti, agaves, and any other plant that has thorns.

Cubedec pots, manufactured by the creative experts at our sister company, Badec Bros Deco, have many uses.  Besides being decorative and creating a strong focal point in your home, office or garden, Cubedec pots can also be used to divide areas in your garden or living areas.  A row of Cubedec B pots, for instance, can be placed in a neat row along your lawn along a busy street, to discourage people from parking on your lawn.  Higher Cubedec pots can be used to create “rooms” in your garden; effectively creating various functional areas, for instance dividing an entrance area from your main garden. 

Our range of customized Cubedec Pots can be manufactured in any size, and can be finished in three types of finishes: colourful powder coating, mild steel finish or rusted finish.  These pots can even be manufactured with adjustable legs as an optional extra.  Cubedec drip trays are also available as elective add-ons and can also be enhanced with mosaic tiles or wood.
