A pair of premium quality, highly desirable artificial spiral boxwood topiary trees measuring 90cm/3ft in height. Extremely lifelike and realistic looking, from a short distance it's hard to believe they are not real. Easy and carefree alternative to real plants. Perfect if you don't want the hassle or have the time to care for living plants. They look absolutely fantastic either side of doorways, on the balcony or patio. Also outside shop fronts, offices and receptions as well as bars & restaurants. For an extra stylish look, plant the trees up into large planters or tubs. Fill the bottom with a heavy material such as sand or stones to prevent the tree being blown over in strong winds. Then fill with a material that can be compacted such as ordinary soil up to the level you want the tree to sit in the planter. Place the tree in the middle and fill to the top and compact hard around the plastic pot and the base of the tree. The core is a metal pole which the plastic foliage spirals around. The metal core is not visible as the foliage is thick and covers the pole entirely. The metal core provides a strong solid centre for the tree, making it robust and durable. Supplied in a black plastic pot with concrete filling to stabilize the base of the tree. The pot can be removed simply by pulling out the metal centre from its housing in the pot. Please note the trees are packed in cardboard cartons for maximum protection. The trees are lying down flat in the boxes which can cause the plastic foliage to be compressed and out of shape. The perfect shape can be regained by gently pulling and fluffing the foliage back into shape. Sold as a pair (2 trees per carton).
