Nandina domestica 'Moon Bay' changes colour with the seasons, opening lime-green in spring, deepening through summer, then turning rich red and burgundy through the cold months. It delivers a full year of colour from foliage alone, and it is grown for that foliage rather than for the small white flowers it carries in summer.
'Moon Bay' is compact and upright, reaching 60 centimetres to 1 metre tall and just 50 centimetres wide at a slow 10 to 20 centimetres per year. That narrow habit and slow rate make it reliable as a low border, a mass planting in a narrow bed, an underplanting beneath feature trees, or a pot specimen.
'Moon Bay' is frost hardy, surviving heavy and frequent frost without damage, and the winter colour is in fact strongest where frosts are regular. It grows in full sun, tolerates a wide range of soils, and needs essentially no pruning.
About Nandina 'Moon Bay'
'Moon Bay' grows to 60 centimetres to 1 metre tall and just 50 centimetres wide, holding a compact upright habit. It is a true dwarf and does not need cutting back to stay low.
New growth opens lime-green in spring, deepens through summer, then turns rich red and burgundy through autumn and winter. The cycle repeats every year.
Cold drives the colour change, so winter tones are strongest and deepest in districts with regular frost. In warm frost-free areas the colour shift is softer.
It grows slowly at 10 to 20 centimetres per year. The slow rate means a planted border holds its scale and spacing for many years without correction.
Yes. It is frost hardy and survives heavy and frequent frost without damage, which is why it performs so well in cold inland districts.
Plant 40 to 50 centimetres apart for a continuous low border or mass planting. Its narrow habit means close spacing works without crowding.
Essentially none. Remove any tired older canes at ground level every few years to refresh the clump, but no shaping or shearing is required.

Is Nandina 'Moon Bay' frost tolerant?
Nandina 'Moon Bay' is Frost Hardy – Survives heavy and frequent frost without damage.
Nandina ‘Moon Bay’ produces delicate clusters of tiny white star-shaped flowers in late spring and early summer. These soft, airy blooms sit above the fine, upright foliage and are followed by bright red berries that add colour and interest through autumn and winter.
Does Nandina 'Moon Bay' flower?
Flowering Period:
Flower Type:
Flower Colour:
White
No
Nandina 'Moon Bay' is Native to East Asia, particularly China and Japan, where Nandina domestica grows naturally in woodland edges and garden landscapes.
Its flowers attract bees and small pollinating insects, while the bright red berries provide an important winter food source for birds. The dense, multi-stemmed structure also offers low-level shelter for small birds and beneficial insects, helping to support biodiversity in ornamental and low-maintenance gardens.
Nandina 'Moon Bay' will thrive best in:
Nandina ‘Moon Bay’ performs best in well-drained loam or sandy loam soils and prefers slightly acidic to neutral conditions. It may struggle in waterlogged or compacted clay unless improved with organic matter and coarse material to boost drainage. Keep soil evenly moist during establishment, then shift to deep, occasional watering as the plant matures to support drought resilience, vibrant seasonal colour and healthy compact growth.
Is Nandina 'Moon Bay' Drought tolerant?
As a young plant it requires regular watering, but once established ‘Moon Bay’ develops good drought tolerance. Hardy and adaptable, it performs strongly in warm, dry and urban conditions and maintains its compact, upright form with occasional deep watering during extended dry periods.

Enriched Planting Mix is a certified organic blend of Pure Magic Compost, composted animal manure, gypsum, composted coarse bark and a wetting agent, bagged in 30L. It is built to be dug through existing garden soil at planting time rather than used on its own, and the gypsum is what sets it apart from a plain compost.
Gypsum helps break up heavy clay so water and roots can move through it, while the compost and manure return organic matter and nutrient to tired ground. The coarse bark holds structure and keeps air around the root zone, and the wetting agent keeps moisture in the soil longer after rain or watering.
Use it when planting trees, shrubs, roses, fruit trees and exotic garden plants, particularly into clay. Dig a hole twice the width of the pot and 7 centimetres deeper, then mix roughly one third planting mix through the excavated soil. Spread 7 centimetres of that improved soil in the base before setting the plant in.
About Enriched Planting Mix
It is a blend of Pure Magic Compost, composted animal manure, gypsum, composted coarse bark and a wetting agent. Each part has a job. The compost and manure supply organic matter and nutrient, the gypsum works on clay structure, the bark keeps air around the roots and the wetting agent holds moisture in the soil.
It suits exotic garden plants, including roses, ornamental and deciduous trees, fruit trees, shrubs and perennials, and it earns its keep most on heavy clay sites. It is a planting mix rather than a potting mix, so its job is improving soil at planting time. Phosphorus sensitive natives are the one clear exception.
No, not for the phosphorus sensitive ones. The composted animal manure in this blend lifts phosphorus well above what Proteaceae such as Banksia, Grevillea, Hakea and Protea will tolerate, and the result can be leaf burn, dieback and plant death. Use the Native Potting Mix for those species, or plant them into unimproved local soil.
Yes. It is a certified organic product with no chemical additives, which is why the manure and compost in it are fully composted rather than raw. That makes it sound around fruit trees and vegetable beds, and it means you are adding genuine organic matter to your soil rather than a synthetic conditioner.
Work on roughly one third planting mix to two thirds of the soil you dug out of the hole. For a shrub out of a 200 millimetre pot that is only a few litres. An advanced tree going into a large hole will take considerably more. Judge the quantity by the volume of the hole rather than the size of the plant.
It is not a potting mix and should not be used on its own in a container. The blend is designed to be diluted through garden soil, and used straight in a pot it holds too much water and settles badly. For containers, reach for a premium potting mix, or the native mix if you are potting natives.
Yes. Water the plant well several hours before you plant it, then water thoroughly again once the hole is backfilled and the soil firmed down. That first deep watering settles the improved soil around the root ball and drives out air pockets. Keep the water up over the first few months while the roots establish.

Buxus microphylla var. japonica, sold as Japanese Box, is a dense evergreen shrub clipped here into clean topiary balls. The small, rounded, mid green leaves sit tightly along short stems, so the surface holds a crisp edge after cutting. Growth is naturally compact, which is what allows the ball shape to hold between trims.
It grows in full sun to part shade and accepts most soils that drain, from sandy loam through to improved clay. Cool temperate, temperate and subtropical districts all suit it, and established plants handle light to moderate frost. Growth runs about 15 to 25 centimetres a year, slow enough that the shape stays where you put it.
Balls are used to edge beds and paths, mark an entry, sit either side of a doorway, or repeat down a courtyard to give a planting rhythm. They also underplant feature trees neatly. Because the form arrives already grown, a bed reads finished from the day it goes in rather than years later.
About Japanese Box Topiary Balls
It is Buxus microphylla var. japonica grown on and clipped into a sphere. The plant does the same job as any box shrub, evergreen, small leaved and tolerant of cutting, but it arrives already shaped. Ball diameters run from around 30 centimetres up to large advanced specimens, and the shape is then held with two trims a year.
The ball is held at whatever diameter it is clipped to, commonly 30 to 70 centimetres, with larger specimens available in bigger containers. In the ground, overall height sits close to the ball diameter. Left entirely unclipped the species would slowly reach roughly 1.5 to 2 metres tall and wide over many years.
About 15 to 25 centimetres a year, which is slow to moderate. That pace is an advantage in topiary because the outline drifts gradually rather than running away between cuts. Two trims a year, one in early spring and one in late summer, are usually enough to keep the surface tight and the profile even.
Full sun to part shade both work. Full sun gives the densest, tightest surface, which matters when the appeal of the plant is a clean clipped edge. In hot inland gardens some afternoon shade prevents leaf scorch and bronzing. Deep shade thins the growth out and the ball loses its crisp outline.
Yes. Established plants handle light to moderate frost without damage, which covers most temperate and cool temperate gardens including Canberra, Melbourne and the southern tablelands. Newly planted stock is more exposed, so water it well going into winter and mulch the root zone. Any frost burnt tips can simply be trimmed off in spring.
Yes, they are one of the better plants for a container. A pot 40 to 50 centimetres wide suits a single ball for a courtyard, entry or balcony. Use a quality potting mix, water once the top few centimetres dry out, and feed in spring and again in summer. Repot or refresh the mix every few years.
Trim twice a year with sharp shears, cutting lightly and often rather than hard. Feed in early spring with a slow release fertiliser and keep water up through summer. Mulch to about 50 millimetres, keeping it clear of the stem. Watch for box psyllid on soft new growth and treat early if the tips start to cup.

Buxus sempervirens English Box Topiary Balls are pre-clipped formal evergreen specimens, available in three mature sizes and ready to place. The tight, fine, dark green foliage holds a precise rounded form year-round and gives the classic formal topiary look that no other Buxus replicates. As one of our most consistently strong-selling products, our English Box topiary balls are well-shaped, well-rooted, and arrive in proportion to the pot size.
English Box performs best in cool to temperate climates and is slow growing at around 15 to 25 cm per year in good conditions, which is exactly why it holds sharp formal shapes so well. It thrives in full sun to part shade with well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral loamy soil, and is frost hardy, drought tolerant once established, and excellent in containers. Two light clips per year, in spring and again in late summer, keep the ball form crisp.
Use them flanking entrances, lining formal pathways, anchoring symmetrical garden beds, defining parterre and knot gardens, and in pairs in classic urns and decorative pots at front doors. Buxus sempervirens is the original topiary plant and remains the benchmark for traditional and contemporary formal design, with a level of finesse and density that fast-growing alternatives cannot replicate.
About Buxus sempervirens English Box Topiary Balls
Our English Box topiary balls arrive pre-clipped and ready to place at the size you order. The 30cm/33cm pots have ball diameters of approximately 30 to 45 cm, the 40cm/45L pots have ball diameters of 40 to 55 cm, and the 50cm/75L pots have ball diameters of 50 to 70 cm. They are well-rooted and in proportion to the pot.
English Box is slow-growing, adding approximately 15 to 25 cm per year once established in good conditions. This slow growth rate is one of the reasons it holds sharp formal shapes so well, and why mature pre-clipped specimens command a premium over seedling-grown stock.
English Box (Buxus sempervirens) has the smallest, finest leaves and the tightest formal texture, ideal for traditional parterres and clipped balls. Japanese Box (Buxus microphylla japonica) has slightly larger leaves, grows faster, and handles heat better. Shaggy Box (Buxus bodinieri) has soft, rounded leaves, much better blight resistance, and is the best choice for humid subtropical climates where English Box can struggle.
English Box performs best in cool to temperate regions including Victoria, the ACT, the NSW Southern Highlands and Central Tablelands, Tasmania, and the elevated parts of South Australia and Western Australia. In humid coastal or hot subtropical regions, consider Buxus bodinieri Shaggy Box or Japanese Box instead for better long-term performance.
Lightly clip in spring and again in late summer or early autumn to maintain the ball shape. Avoid pruning in the heat of summer or during frost periods. Use sharp shears for the cleanest formal finish, and step back regularly to check the symmetry of the form.
Yes. English Box is the classic potted topiary plant and pre-clipped balls look particularly striking in pairs at entrances and on terraces. Use a minimum 30L pot for the 30cm/33cm size and scale up from there, with a quality potting mix and a slow-release fertiliser applied twice yearly.
English Box can be affected by box blight, particularly in humid conditions where foliage stays wet. To reduce risk, ensure good air circulation around each plant, avoid overhead watering, and prune to maintain airflow through the canopy. In high-humidity regions, Buxus bodinieri Shaggy Box is a more disease-resistant alternative.

Syzygium paniculatum 'Backyard Bliss' is a fast-growing, low-maintenance Australian native ideal for creating dense, lush hedges. Its vibrant evergreen foliage is complemented by striking coppery bronze new growth, making it a gorgeous and eye-catching feature in any garden.
They look excellent when planted as privacy screens or formal hedges and work well for topiary or standalone ornamental trees. Summer brings fluffy cream-white blossoms that attract bees and native birds, boosting your garden's ecological value.
Thriving in full sun to part shade and adaptable to well-drained soils, including clay and sandy types, this resilient tree is drought and frost tolerant once established. For added landscape interest, 'Backyard Bliss' hedges can be underplanted with shade-tolerant groundcovers or small flowering plants to create layered garden designs.
About Syzygium paniculatum 'Backyard Bliss' Lilly Pilly
Backyard Bliss reaches 4-5 metres tall and around 2 metres wide at maturity. With regular trimming it can be maintained at any height between 1.5 and 4 metres, making it one of the most versatile lilly pilly varieties for Australian hedges.
Backyard Bliss is a fast-growing cultivar, adding roughly 1 metre of growth per year once established in good conditions. Expect a usable privacy hedge within 18-24 months from 45L pot size.
Plant 60-80cm apart for a dense, fast-establishing formal hedge. For a looser informal screen, 1 metre spacing also works well.
Yes. Backyard Bliss is one of the most psyllid-resistant lilly pilly varieties available, which is the main reason it outperforms older Syzygium cultivars across Australian gardens.
Yes. Backyard Bliss performs well in large pots (minimum 50L) and is widely used as a balcony screen or potted formal hedge with regular watering and feeding.
Yes. The summer cream-white flowers attract native birds, bees, and pollinators, and the dense evergreen canopy provides shelter and nesting habitat.
Trim two to three times through the warmer months to keep a formal hedge dense and even, starting while the plants are young so the base fills out properly. Light, regular clipping gives a better result than one hard cut. Backyard Bliss shoots readily from older wood, so it recovers well if you need to bring a hedge back down in height.

Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Silver Sheen' carries small shimmering silver-green leaves on near-black stems, giving a light airy screen that moves in the wind rather than reading as a solid green wall. It is one of the most widely specified screening plants in Australian landscape design for exactly that reason.
'Silver Sheen' grows to 4 to 6 metres tall but only 1.5 to 2 metres wide at 30 to 60 centimetres per year, which makes it a genuine solution for narrow beds along fence lines and between buildings where height is needed but width is not available. Small cream flowers appear in spring and are lightly fragrant.
'Silver Sheen' grows in full sun to part shade and tolerates light to moderate frost once established, performing from subtropical Queensland through Sydney, Melbourne, Gippsland and Adelaide. It clips well, holds density under regular trimming, and is equally effective as a formal hedge or a loose screen.
About Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Silver Sheen'
'Silver Sheen' grows to 4 to 6 metres tall and only 1.5 to 2 metres wide, which makes it one of the best options for narrow screening where a tall hedge is needed in a shallow bed.
It grows at 30 to 60 centimetres per year once established, reaching a usable screening height within three to four years with regular water and feeding.
It naturally holds to 1.5 to 2 metres wide and can be trimmed to under a metre with regular clipping, which is why it is so often used in tight side-boundary positions.
Plant 1 to 1.5 metres apart for a dense informal screen, or 80 centimetres apart for a tighter formal hedge. Closer spacing fills in faster but needs more trimming.
'Silver Sheen' handles light to moderate frost once established. Young plants benefit from protection through their first winter in colder inland districts.
Yes. It performs in full sun through to part shade. In shadier positions growth is slightly more open, which suits a softer informal screen.

Nandina domestica 'Moon Bay' changes colour with the seasons, opening lime-green in spring, deepening through summer, then turning rich red and burgundy through the cold months. It delivers a full year of colour from foliage alone, and it is grown for that foliage rather than for the small white flowers it carries in summer.
'Moon Bay' is compact and upright, reaching 60 centimetres to 1 metre tall and just 50 centimetres wide at a slow 10 to 20 centimetres per year. That narrow habit and slow rate make it reliable as a low border, a mass planting in a narrow bed, an underplanting beneath feature trees, or a pot specimen.
'Moon Bay' is frost hardy, surviving heavy and frequent frost without damage, and the winter colour is in fact strongest where frosts are regular. It grows in full sun, tolerates a wide range of soils, and needs essentially no pruning.
