Why choose Buxus sempervirens?

This traditional favourite is one of the most popular hedging plants in New Zealand for formal and contemporary gardens alike. Its tight, compact growth habit responds beautifully to regular trimming, allowing you to maintain sharp lines and shapes with ease. Ideal for creating elegant boundaries, dividing garden rooms, or adding timeless structure around patios and entrances.

Buxus sempervirens performs well in full sun to partial shade and suits most well-drained soils common in the Bay of Plenty. It’s slow-growing, which means less frequent trimming once established compared to faster hedging plants.

Perfect for:

• Formal garden borders and edging
• Instant impact and definition in landscaping projects
• Topiary and feature hedging
• Coastal and urban gardens in Tauranga and surrounding areas

Planting Tip: Dig a trench, place the pre-formed metre sections end-to-end, backfill, and water thoroughly.
