The Taxus Baccata Dome is a refined and prominent garden feature, meticulously shaped into a smooth, rounded form. This elegant structure adds a touch of sophistication and formality to outdoor spaces, serving as a striking focal point.
Where Should I Place My Taxus Baccata Dome?
Taxus Baccata Domes thrive in various conditions but excel in locations that receive partial shade to full sun. Ensure they are planted in well-drained, fertile soil to prevent waterlogging, which can harm the roots. Moisture-retentive soil is ideal and using a soaker hose can help maintain consistent moisture levels, particularly during dry periods.
Growth and Pruning
Taxus Baccata Domes are slow-growing, allowing them to maintain their smooth, rounded shape with less frequent pruning. They typically reach a height of 100-200 cm, making them suitable for both formal and informal garden settings. Regular pruning is essential to preserve the dome shape and encourage healthy growth. Trim by removing any weak, dead, or damaged branches and clearing debris at the base. To refine the topiary’s form, use sharp shears to shape the foliage and maintain its elegant dome.
