Hello everyone. I’ve planted a native hedge along the south boundary of our garden (poss 200 plants). The dog rose has some wonderful rose hips which I was leaving for the birds. The app says I should be pruning these plants. I’m not sure now. Can I leave them for the birds etc. do they even like rose hips? The whole idea of the hedge was to attract wildlife and not to be too fussy about the shape. #nativehedge
