As Master Gardeners we cannot endorse a particular nursery or garden center. What we can suggest is to check the Landscape Ontario website at www.landscapeontario.com. Then choose “Find a Company” and click on the link to “Garden Centres”. You will be asked to click on a map or enter a city. If you type in “Toronto” a long list of such companies will appear. Entries include website, address and phone number. Hope this will help you out and good luck with fixing that hedge.
