Box planting

Our intention is to create structure with Box edging throughout the garden. As with our old garden at Linden Barn, we will again use Box hedging as a central theme defining areas of this new garden.

As work on the back garden begins in earnest in September, it is the front garden that offers us the opportunity to get some real work done in this regard.


We love the effect of Yew and Box balls contained in Box hedging and we will use this extensively throughout the garden. But Box is not inexpensive so we are buying small plants and allowing them to grow and develop. In the end I am sure these will be happier and healthier plants than those bought in larger sizes.
