TOPIARY & SPECIMEN TREE OPTIONS

CAREFULLY SELECTED FOR QUALITY AND FORM

At Topiary by Design Ltd, we pride ourselves on offering plants and trees that are healthy and also visually exceptional. Each item in our range is chosen individually based on its condition, symmetry and structure. We never deal in mass-produced or bulk-buy stock, instead, we focus on high-quality specimens that have been grown with care and trained over time to achieve outstanding shape and character. Our topiary collection includes a variety of expertly clipped forms. These sculptural forms provide immediate definition and structure, working equally well as focal points or as repeating elements in formal designs. Some examples include:

CLASSIC TOPIARY STYLES

  • Box Balls (Buxus Balls): Neat, spherical shapes ideal for symmetry and structure
  • Spirals: Twisting forms, often clipped from yew or box, for a dramatic effect
  • Pyramids: Geometric shapes perfect for framing entrances or paths
  • Cubes: Clean, angular lines for a modern, architectural look
  • Cones: Tapered shapes that add vertical interest and formality

STANDARD TOPIARY

  • Double & Triple Balls: Multiple spheres stacked vertically on a central stem
  • Lollipop Trees: A single bare stem with a clipped ball on top

CLOUD PRUNING (NIWAKI STYLE)

  • Cloud Forms: Rounded pads resembling clouds inspired by Japanese gardens
  • Layered Tiers: Flat-topped or mushroom-shaped layers for a sculptural effect

CONTEMPORARY & ABSTRACT FORMS

  • Wave Forms: Flowing, undulating shapes.
  • Geometric Sculptures: Cubes, obelisks etc. for modern landscapes.
  • Freeform Designs: Custom organic shapes unique to each plant.
TOPIARY BY DESIGN
TOPIARY FOR STRUCTURE AND ELEGANCE

Topiary is one of the most timeless and versatile elements in garden design. Used traditionally to frame paths, mark entrances, or anchor borders, it can also be employed in modern settings for contrast and form.

At Topiary by Design Ltd, each plant is shaped and maintained to a high standard, so whether you are creating a formal design or adding structure to a border, we will find something suitable.

We offer a wide selection of species suitable for topiary, including:

  • Ilex crenata: A popular alternative to box, ideal for topiary and hedging with excellent form
  • Taxus baccata (Yew): Long-lived, slow-growing, and exceptionally dense, perfect for crisp, formal shapes.
  • Ligustrum (Privet): Available in lollipop and multi-ball forms with glossy leaves and elegant shape.
  • Olive trees: Clipped or naturalistic, their silvery foliage adds Mediterranean charm and sophistication.
