Due to 'box blight' being prevalent across London, Buxus is no longer an option. But Ilex - the Japanese - with its similar dense leave structure, summer flower and autumn fruit, is a great alternative.

For no fuss or mess you can put the plant in the growing pot it arrives in straight inside a decorative one. This also allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.

For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot.

Here are recommended sizes -

Size	Diameter / Height	Minimum Decorative Pot Opening Required
2 Litre	⌀17cm H13cm	19cm
4 Litre	⌀20cm H16.5cm	22cm
7 Litre	⌀25cm H20cm	27cm
10 Litre	⌀28cm H22.5cm	30cm
15 Litre	⌀33cm H30cm	35cm
20 Litre	⌀35.5cm H32.5cm	38cm

For a seamless finish where the plant is potted into the decorative pot, liners are available to prevent water leaking and the pot from damage.

We also offer a potting service.
