Build a boundary with openings

Use the tree line to lead a road toward the backdrop or separate a railway cutting from adjoining countryside. Stagger the trees and leave gaps where viewers should see into the landscape. The lower vegetation around the bases can be planned separately to connect the wooded edge to the open ground.

Plan the surrounding railway scene

Woods-edge trees suit the boundary between a field and a forest, a road disappearing behind a station or a line of growth beyond a railway embankment. They give the tree line a role within the landscape. Arrange the trees in small offset groups with breaks between them. Continue the edge with low ground cover, grasses or shrubs, then let the open space lead toward a road, field or stretch of track.

Should woods-edge trees form a straight row?

For an informal forest boundary, stagger the positions and vary the gaps. A straight row may suit a deliberately planted boundary, but an uneven arrangement is a useful starting point for a woodland edge.
