Fresh Topiary
plants and preserved topiary plants |
We created Fresh Topiary to
supply a niche that lacked quality and selection at a great price. Unlike
topiaries purchased at nurseries and home improvement stores, Fresh Topiary
plants are shipped directly to you straight from the grower. This means the
greenest, freshest plants 100% of the time
Safe Arrival - Your plant is carefully
packed and sent via Federal Express or UPS direct to your door. If for any
reason you are not satisfied, we accept them back and provide a full refund.
Huge Selection - We now stock what
is probably the largest range of Topiary plants in the United States, along
with a fantastic selection of adorable mini-trees.
Topiary is the oldest form
of topiary. Free-standing shrubs and trees are pruned and sheared into
specific shapes. This works best with geometric forms such as balls, squares
or rectangles, and is not well suited to creating complex shapes. Standards
are just a single stem, selected early, and pruned up. Herb topiaries,
especially rosemary, thyme and lavender, are commonly plants pruned into a
standard. Many landscape plants can be sculpted into recognizable shapes.
Yew is one of the most common in northern gardens for shaping into balls,
cones, or squares.
True topiary is a living ornament
made from live shrubs and trees that are snipped and clipped into a wide
variety of shapes, including pyramids, spirals, pom-poms, or even animals.
The Satsuki Azalea blooms in late
spring and produces vibrant multi-colored flowers. They have been grown in
Japan for centuries and are more dwarf than other hybrid groups. Satsuki
means "fifth month" and are considered late bloomers.
Botanical Name: Rhododendron indicum
Light: Filtered, partial sun. Avoid prolonged direct exposure to spring and
summer sun.
Water: Keep the soil damp as roots can dry out easily which is fatal to the
tree. If using tap water that is high in lime, repot the tree every year to
keep the soil acidity high.
