This variety is possibly the best box hedge for warmer regions as it tolerates heat better than other Buxus plants, and it is great for colder climates too as it does not tend to take on copper tonings in the cold as badly as the other varieties can do. It is suitable for a full sun to part shade position and requires little water once established. Plant 30-40 cm apart for hedging. 50cm H x 70cm W in 3-5 years.\u003c\/p\u003e{shortend}\r\n\u003cp\u003eBuxus plants are a favourite for traditional gardens, as they are perfect for formal evergreen hedges. Featuring small glossy green leaves on a compact dense shrub, this makes them perfect for clipping or topiary. Most Buxus are relatively slow growing, and shade tolerant, making them ideal for formal hedging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e** Immature Buxus plants can change colour and take on Autumn tonings during a very cold Winter. This is quite normal and often relates to very cold nights with bright sunny days, with cold winds also known to cause this bronzing. Top dressing in Autumn with Dolomite lime and fetilising before the weather cools too much can help shield them from this. Fertilise with an all purpose fertilizer in early Spring as the weather begins to warm and plants will soon revert to their normal dark green foliage colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCAUTION Harmful if eaten\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garden Express Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54271309807800,"sku":"COLSPBUXF","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/0805\/2920\/files\/collection-colbuxfau-buxus-faulkner-dwarf-japanese-box.jpg?v=1785382355","url":"https:\/\/gardenexpress.com.au\/products\/starter-pack-buxus-faulkner","provider":"Garden Express Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
