How to grow Buxus?
Box hedging spacing Planting distances are very much a matter of choice - for bare roots, 3 plants per metre is adequate, 5 is good, 7 in a double staggered row will give a dense hedge quicker. Generally, smaller plants should be planted at higher density. Cell grown should be planted at 4 per metre in a single row or 6 per metre in a staggered row but particularly with this species you could consider planting more densely. Planting density for pot grown and root ball box hedging plants is as shown but you can vary this depending on your budget and how long you're willing to wait to see the finished product.Buxus sempervirens growth rate Often considered a very slow grower, we deem Box plants to be slow to medium in their growth rate, achieving 10-15cm per annum.
Cell grown, pot grown and instant box hedging plants are available to buy all year round. Bare roots are only available from november to late April/early May. Box is an unusual species in that it's absolutely fine to buy root balls all year round.
For more information on planting distances please see our planting density advice section.
