A verge trimming apparatus includes a tractor vehicle (1). An articulated boom (3) is mounted on a chassis (2) of the vehicle (1) and projects outwardly from one side of the vehicle (1). A set of three flail heads (5, 6, 7) are mounted at an outer end of the boom (3). These flail heads (5, 6, 7) are both slidable and pivotable relative to each other for arrangement in a number of hedge and/or verge trimming configurations. <IMAGE>
