- A hedge or hedgerow in agriculture and in gardening is a lineal barrier or boundary made from growing plants planted and grown in such a way that their limbs densely intertwine, keeping livestock securely within bounds. This is the original meaning of the word. In the US, the term may also refer to the Osage-orange tree, (Maclura pomifera) sometimes called the "hedge tree". In Europe, rural hedges are more commonly composed of Hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna), Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa), or European Beech (Fagus sylvatica), while urban hedges are usually composed of Privet (Ligustrum ovalifolium) bushes or conifers like Leylandii (Cupressus leylandii). Decorative hedges in ornamental gardens are most frequently composed of Buxus (Buxus sempervirens, Common Box or European Box) or of Common Yew (Taxus baccata).
- A hedge in gambling or finance is a bet or investment taken to reduce loss, should another bet or investment turn out unfavourably.
- Hedges in linguistics are intentionally non-committal or ambiguous sentence fragments, such as "sort of", "kind of", "like".
The word may be used as both a noun and a verb: e.g. plant a hedge and hedge one's bets.
