Middle aged woman cutting back a residential privet hedge with a battery operated pole hedge trimmer

---

The privet hedge is about two metres tall and a metre and half wide; it's a biggie. It is an excellent barrier between houses when kept under control, and if people nearby don't suffer from the privet flower. It is a noxious weed in some parts. This one is decades old. The owner of the hedge is using an Ozito hedge trimmer. She is 61.
