Replace Box Hedge

Question

Box hedge has died. Open the front and part of driveway on public footpath for dog walkers etc. . Would like fast growing hedge or tall planting for privacy

Answer 1

If this has died from disease, then you will need to make sure that what you plant is not related to the shrub that you are replacing. This means staying away from the genus, Buxus.
