Description

Buxus microphylla 

Korean Box is a fantastic compact shrub with long but finer leaves than most buxus. It's foliage is a bright green long oval shape with gloss. It is one of the lowest growing buxus and so is ideal for box hedging, however it can tend to turn yellow in full sun, so it will prefer a part shade/filtered light position. Korean box is one of the slower growing varieties and is great in pots or as topiary's. This plant has a moderate growth rate that grows to approximately 50-60cm in height. Plant every 20cm - 5 per meter for an optimum hedge.
one size fits all, set and forget controlled release plant food for those who don't have the time or inclination to tend to each plant or garden bed individually. The smart way to fertilise - one application feeds continuously for up to 12 months. • All Purpose • 12 months feed • Plus trace elements • Fast and Easy • Watersmart technology FEATURES
  • The release of nutrients depends on temperature - more when it's warm and plants are growing and less when it's cold and growth is slow
  • Scotts Osmocote® uses advanced prill technology that ensures even and controlled nutrient release with no wastage. Controlled release means feeding less often and more effectively; less frequent feeding is more economical and environment-friendly
  • Wetting agent improves water absorption into the soil or potting mix and helps plants take up nutrients
  • Boosted levels of iron & magnesium and other trace elements keep leaves greener for longer and promote healthy growth
  • Less than 2% phosphorus (the 'P' in NPK) means it's safe to use on most Australian natives
  SUITABLE FOR
  • Trees and shrubs including most natives and other phosphorus-sensitive plants
  • Flowering and leafy annuals, perennials, climbers and groundcovers
  • Vegetables, herbs and fruits
  • Potted plants including vegetables, herbs, palms, orchids and indoor plants
  • Safe to use on new plants - the controlled release of nutrients means it will not burn soft leaves or tender young roots
  NOT SUITABLE FOR
  • Do not use in hydroponic growing systems, ponds or pots submerged in water
  • Do not use on lawns - use only specifically named fertilisers on grassed areas
