Topiary plants
Topiary refers to perennials, shrubs are trees which have been trained or clipped into clearly defined, geometric or fanciful shapes such as balls, cubes, obelisks, pyramid cones, or tapering spirals. It has increasingly come back into vogue in recent years, generally using dense, small-leaved evergreens with varieties such as English Yew (Taxus Baccata), Box plants (Buxus Sempervirens) and variegated holly (Ilex Argentea) amongst those best suited. Topiary is excellent for adding architectural flair and strong lines to your garden. Spirals, pyramids and lollipops are great for positioning either side of a doorway to add elegance and a touch of glamour, whilst well-maintained Buxus balls, perhaps positioned along a Box hedge, can be used to add a degree of sharpness and formality. Topiary is also a great way to introduce children to gardening and a perfect gift for those looking for a new relaxing and rewarding pass-time. We pride ourselves on offering topiary that has been carefully maintained and hand-trimmed to deliver the best specimens. Popular choices include our Buxus spirals, Camellia lollipops and Bay Laurel cones.
