Tomatoes planted within a tiny hedge - doable?

[Coronilla]

I have the perfect spot for tomatoes in my garden, but it currently houses a very small Ilex Crenata hedge of five young plants. I’m wondering if I could plant tomatoes in between the individual Ilex plants (they were planted about 30cm apart). There is definitely space to fit plug plants in, but I’m wondering about nutrition / competition. It’s in a narrow raised bed (30cm high, 20cm deep) with very good soil. Could this work?

I would worry that your tomatoes will outcompete the hedge youre trying to grow. However, you could get pots, cut the bottom off, put them on rhe soil, fill with compost, and plant tomatoes into them? Will give extra root space for the tomatoes and lift them above the heught of your hedge plants. Remove the lower leaves so they dont flop over onto your new hedge. It mightnt look particularly attractive though!

I don't think it'd be very good for the ilex or the tomatoes. Do you not want the ilex hedge to grow at all? If it's on good soil, you'd expect the ilex to start eating up that 30cm distance pretty fast, wouldn't you?

Thanks for your replies, really helpful. I suspected it wasn't the best idea, so I'm glad to be persuaded out of it! I will have a rethink...
