large bushes


Explanation:
From the context, this could only sensibly be large bushes. I say 'sensibly', because the sentence tells us that these things are grouped with hedges and have to be clipped in the same way as hedges. Can only be something akin to a hedge.

-> "With a 150° articulating gearcase, operators can trim and shape large bushes and tall hedges with both feet firmly planted on the ground."
