Beyond the norm

This is a tree that trims very well. Titoki can be trimmed as a single specimen to a desired height or they also trim very well as a clipped or pleached hedge. Ideally plant Titoki at 1 to 2m centres depending on the ultimate height the hedge will be trimmed to. The planted centres need to be similar to the trimmed width.
