Pot Grown Dwarf Box
(Buxus sempervirens 'Suffruticosa')

Dwarf Box hedging̴Ì?is perfect if you are looking for a hedge that is compact, low, and slow growing.

We've dedicated time and care into growing your pot grown plant, so it arrives looking stunningly new and healthy.

The Dwarf Box has little, rich, dark green leaves that look dense and bushy. It is very good at maintaining its shape, considering its so small, which makes it a lovely hedge to place in little areas around your garden. It is a very slow growing species, sitting at 3-5cm per annum. Growing this slowly makes it perfect for border surroundings, or even putting in your vegetable gardens. This hedge can easily be kept at 30cm, making it an ideal alternative to Box (just smaller!), but its maximum height sits at 90cm.

Besides the lovely leaves, the Dwarf Box also boasts pale yellow flowers around Springtime, following on with pale green fruits in the Summer. Though both the flowers and fruits are pretty, the plant is generally known for being able to easily keep a formal shape.

The Buxus sempervirens ‰ۡÌÝÌáSuffruticosa,‰ۡó» loves to see the sun, but can also tolerate shade.

  • Growth height: Slow (10-20cm per year)
  • Ideal Height: 1.2m-2.5m
  • Soil Type: Normal
  • Exposure:̴Ì?Coastal, Exposed, Inland
  • Aspect:̴Ì?Full shade
  • Evergreen foliage? Yes

As it is pot grown, you can easily leave the plant in̴Ì? its pot for a few days/weeks before planting it. Just ensure you keep the plant well-watered, and it gets enough sun. Don't leave it for too long, however, as you don't want the roots becoming root bound.

Trimming/Pruning of the Dwarf Box only twice a year- once in the beginning of June, and then again later in September. You must prune your hedge at the right time, otherwise you may end up damaging or losing new shoots that are trying to grow.

Root Types Summary

  • Bare Root
    Bare Root

    Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.

  • Pot Grown
    Pot Grown

    Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.

  • Root Ball
    Root Ball

    Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.

  • Instant Hedging
    Instant Hedging

    Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
