Why Choose Japanese Box Hedge?
Japanese Box is a favourite for modern and traditional gardens. Its compact growth and smaller leaves make it easier to achieve crisp, clean lines with regular trimming. It performs very well in full sun to partial shade and is more tolerant of heat and humidity than many other buxus varieties, making it an excellent choice for many areas across New Zealand.
This instant hedge is perfect for creating elegant low to medium-height formal hedges, garden edging, borders along pathways, dividing garden rooms, or framing feature areas in your landscape.
Best Uses:
- Formal and contemporary garden hedging
- Pathway edging and parterres
- Low to medium privacy screens
- Coastal and urban gardens in the North Island
- Topiary and shaped garden features
Planting Tip: Prepare a trench, position the metre sections end-end, backfill with good garden mix, and water in well. Japanese Box responds beautifully to regular light trimming to maintain a tight, formal shape.
