Styling and inspiration with the Buxus

The Buxus is one of the most versatile garden plants and can be used in countless ways. In formal gardens it is often used as a low hedge, perfect for lining paths, borders or flower beds. Thanks to its compact growth and evergreen character it also retains its structure in winter, making it a perfect base for seasonal planting.

For lovers of symmetrical or classic gardens, the Buxus is ideal for topiary. From simple spherical shapes to intricate spirals or animal figures, the possibilities are endless. This technique, known as topiary, gives a garden an elegant and unique look.

The Buxus also does well in pots, which makes it suitable for patios and balconies. For example, combine two pruned Buxus balls in pots on either side of a front door to create an inviting and stylish entrance. Another option is to combine the Buxus with other plants. Its tight, green leaves form a beautiful contrast with colorful flowering plants, such as Lavender, Geraniums, or Seasonal Bulbs.

For modern gardens, the Buxus can be used to emphasize straight lines and geometric patterns. For example, combine it with gravel or straight, straight borders for a minimalist look. The Buxus also offers structure and peace in wild, informal gardens, making it a real friend to everyone.
