Topiary

boxwood topiary

14 years ago

I am interested in making a boxwood topiary composed of 3 separate round balls. I have seen them in the garden center. I have gone to look at some boxwood at the garden center- I am not sure how to make three separate balls. will it take forever? I want the plant about 3-4 feet high and I will plant in the ground. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
