Fruit production will be affected by lower light levels but if it's a hedge you're after rather than fruit then both will thicken up nicely with regular pruning. You may need to keep pruning a couple of times a year until you get the required shape. It's always best to prune lightly more often than cut back into bare wood.

Is shaded / and consequently damp but well drained ? Want an evergreen with little attention, but happy to prune annually.
