Product details
Product information
It's hard to beat the sleek and simple lines of a well-trimmed quality Buxus ball, adding a smart, modern, yet classic, look to any garden. Whether placed next to a classic porch, or in minimalist decking gardens, it's hard to think of another easy to grow, yet versatile plant as good as Box. Totally hardy too, leave them out all year - they look great covered in snow too!! Grown by arguably Europe's best Box growers in Holland, the quality is second to none. Grown slowly over 5 years, regularly trimmed 2 or 3 times a year to get the fabulous sharp ball shape, they are super-green and fresh, and the centres have none of the brown middle die-back cheaper Box can suffer from. You may buy cheaper, but not better we are sure. The key with Box is not to let it dry out - especially when in full sun for much of the day. Keep the roots cool and well-watered. Trim with sharp shears once or twice a year, and feed with a balanced fertiliser from May to September, applied to the soil.
