Buxus sempervirens

Pot-grown: stays green longer!

The Buxus is an evergreen outdoor plant that is home-grown in Europe and can grow naturally into a bush or little tree.
The Buxus is ideal for topiary pruning and because they usually come in the form of a ball or cone, they are great to use in either the garden or on the patio.
Buxus can stay outside the whole year and gives pleasure for many years.

Pot grown!

This pot grown buxus has a well-developed root system, meaning that the plant can be easily handled and re-planted. A pot grown buxus will not suffer any re-growth problems, stays healthier and can handle dehydration better than a buxus grown in full ground.
Furthermore, so that this pot grown buxus can stay green longer, starter feed is provided with the plant.

Position: all aspects (from full sun to shade)

Temperature: can stay outside all year round however protect the pot/roots from frost.

Watering: water sufficiently in summer, especially if in terracotta pots. In winter, keep the soil moist.

Feed: feed well - prefers a slow working feed, e.g. Osmocote.

Pruning: prune once or twice a year (mid-June and September/October.)

Re-potting: re-pot after two or three years in high quality buxus compost.
