Formal Garden Trees & Plants
Formal planting depends on repetition and clean lines, which means matched plants and species that hold a clipped shape without constant correction.
Buxus, Photinia, Pittosporum and Camellia sasanqua are the backbone of a formal Australian garden. Standards and pleached forms add height and structure where a hedge alone would be too heavy, and topiary balls give the punctuation.
Formal gardens need more trimming than any other style, typically two to three cuts through the growing season. Choose slower-growing species if you want the look with less of the maintenance.
