Hedge Wizard

Draw a suitable line, polyline or curve before launching Plants → Hedge from Add. A compatible selection can be adopted directly; otherwise select the prepared path when prompted. The wizard opens a full-window workspace, not a small Inspector-only panel.

In Plant Config, set Plant Height and Canopy Width. Scientific Name (optional) is a free-text label. Bind a real plant species links a database species, supplies its name and suggested spacing, and influences its visual profile. Clear the binding to remove that linked species. Plant Shape choices fill several defaults; check dimensions after choosing one.

Choose Trim Style in Trim & Shape. Topiary offers an additional shape choice. Use No Trunk or Trunk, then the offered trunk dimensions, Foliage Start Height and Trunk Color. Under Height Profile, set start/end heights and the transition. Length controls follow metric or imperial project settings.

Set Plant Spacing and Number of Rows. More than one row exposes hedge width and aligned/staggered layout. Check Estimated Plants as you change the arrangement. Openings / Gaps lets you add a skipped planting span using start/end distances along the path; remove a span when it is no longer needed.

Set foliage color and canopy tones. Optional flowers and fruit expose their color and density controls. Maturity changes the model’s size and fullness; Height Variation and Position Variation change the appearance. Shuffle changes the random layout when variation is enabled.

Choose Apply to create or update the parametric hedge, or Cancel to leave without applying the wizard draft. Select the result and use its editing route to reopen the wizard. Check spacing, openings and the generated count after an update; do not assume a species label alone establishes an appropriate planting specification.
