Topiary

'Topiary' dates back to ancient Egypt and is the art of clipping evergreen shrubs and hedging into symmetrical shapes to create ornamental garden features.

It is used in classic and contemporary gardens alike, either as individual plants, a close matching pair of plants, or as block planting as in a parterre or knot garden. Topiary plants are a popular choice for creating focal points and drawing attention to your outdoor space. For example, Box topiary balls or spirals are commonly used on either side of the doorway to welcome guests. Topiary cones of Box or Yew are a favourite to use along driveways.

All the Topiary we stock can be container grown, which makes them ideal plants for patios and urban garden design, in addition to tradtional garden planting. We stock a range of shapes and species including Box topiary and Yew.

We sell topiary in various shapes, eg, ball, cone, pyramid and including packs of smaller plants for creating parterre hedging.
