How to prevent box blight and keep hedges healthy

You’ll find Buxus, Box or Buxus Sempervirens in most gardens, so keeping them healthy and bug free is essential. A staple for most gardens, Buxus Feed can be used as a structure, in pots or hedges. Unfortunately, as evergreens, they are susceptible to under-feeding and inclement weather such as frost. In recent years, there has also been an increase in 'Box Blight', a fungal disease, as well as caterpillars that thrive in Buxus plants. 

Learn how to tackle box blight, nutrient deficiency and bugs such as box tree caterpillars with Andy McIndoe’s step-by-step guide to Buxus. Key products include: Vitax Buxus Feed, Q4 Premium Tomato Feed and PY Bug Killer.
