| Content | Maple Mop Tops are a totally unique landscape tool. They are cheap to produce and as a consequence are very economical to purchase, when compared to other standard or topiary trees. They require little maintenance to maintain a lovely classical manicured look. The Mop Top is very hardy, coping well with wind, heat, drought, frost, pollution and poor soils. Because the Mop Top naturally grows small, it is ideal for planting in confined areas or creating avenues in places where conventional trees won’t fit.
Learn more about these unique trees in our Mop Top Factsheet. | | If your looking for a small hedging plant then this is the one for you. Dutch Box is a dwarf box that grows with dense, glossy green foliage and works well in shaded areas.
Dutch Box also likes part shade in moist, well-drained soil, but will tolerate a wide range of soils and conditions. It should be clipped to maintain a formal shape.
Slight yellow discolouration of the leaves on Dutch box may occur during cooler months, but don't worry, this is normal! This is remedied by applying with Dolomite Lime, and a slow release fertilizer a month later. Or you can just leave your Dutch Box alone and it will come back lovely and green and spring.
