Love this woman gardener .Can sit and listen to her and learn .My gardens in Europe have box but as yet, thank God ,all are fine. Yours Sir Kevin Parr Bt

I am very glad to hear that there has been positive progress on blight resistant Box!

This video was incredibly helpful and informative. I learn new things each time and your presentation style is fun. Thank you so much!!

Thank you Bunny, few of us know the history behind these new box resistant plants. And for giving us very clear instructions on taking cuttings.

You are a wondrous person Bunny. I'm so grateful for your approach. I wasn't always a fan of box - but now I am - and 2 years ago I did my VERY first cuttings of anything - it wss box and slowly they are filling in. Warmest regards Jennie

Excellent video with many useful tips. Thank you so much for sharing. I have been redesigning my garden and taken some box cuttings but can only manage about 50 at a time. FairPlay to you for doing 1000.

OMGosh, I love you. Lol, I also am crazy about cuttings and sharing of plants, seeds, what not. I just bought my first very small box wood this past spring, and now you’ve got me wanting to take at least one cutting from it. Yes you know I will. I’m across the pond in the USA 🇺🇸 Midwest, in Iowa, temperature today was 20C (we call this Indian Summer). So tomorrow will be warm again and I’ll take my cutting tomorrow. Bringing it inside because we have brutal winters. I take cutting of coleus and geraniums ( I use raw honey to the geranium cuttings). Yes rooting hormone is much too expensive and hasn’t worked for me. ) In the spring I intend to “air layer part of my fig tree, which I drag inside in winter ( my variety isn’t hearty for Iowa winters). Air layering has worked for my Jasmine plant, (just decided to try it on a whim, lol, what did I have to lose), it’s another plant I drag in for winter. Am I obsessed? Well maybe a little. Much love from across the pond.

Thank you Bunny! Another great video! Keep them coming. I look forward to them.

Another really useful video. Betterbuxus here I come!

That hydrobox looks pretty cool! 🤩🌿🌾🌼

I've been planting the more resistant NewGen Freedom and Independence boxwood cultivars for my customers in the US with good results so far. Love live box!

Very excited to watch this. I just bought 4 nice size boxwood plants (in 3 gallon pots) a few weeks ago for a great deal ($18). After seeing this, I plan to take a few cuttings this coming week. I live in Dallas, TX, USA and we have warm winters (8a). I am hopeful they will do well here. Thank you so much for your insightful information.

Love your garden with the box!!! I too love to take cuttings

Great information as usual Bunny, thank you. I too love taking cuttings, it is addictive 🙈

I live in Canada but otherwise I would gladly take another plant from Bunny…I have been wanting to put in a hedge around my veg garden…this is how I will get the plants

Great post-pub viewing!!! 😁👍

Thank you. Your videos are so thorough.

Wonderful. Thanks

Will be trying this with my box here in zone 5 central Indiana. Have a box called “ Wee Willy “.. I could not find any more of the Wee Willy ones this year so will try this

So happy to see you Bunny, I’m always anxious to see your videos, I have been trying cuttings, I have made a boxwood topiary, a Rosemary topiary and did some lavender..your right it is addictive…going to look into Charles Dardings trays..can you suggest a link? I’m in zone 5 US, Illinois..I also have tried your bottomless pots, this will be my first winter season to see how it goes…I do Love the way it looks to elevate plants off the ground…thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

Absolutely beautiful garden.

Buddleia roots pretty well ... I just started rooting cuttings of outdoor plants recently and I was so surprised how easily cuttings can be rooted! ... but ficus is probably even easier to root than willow!!

Bunny, Great segment just love your information packed videos. I'm a cuttings enthusiast myself and taking hundreds of box cuttings to fill out the beds and hedges in my half acre garden. Would love to see your approach to creating box balls . Kath

I love your videos, Bunny! They are so informative and inspirational! I was wondering if I could make a video request? Could you do a film on pleaching trees? I want to plant a line of pleached beech along my drive but the cost to buy them is astronomical. I was wondering if you could show how to do them from scratch? Thank you!!!

Very helpful. I love box and am just starting to try cuttings. Love your site.

Oh my gosh your new misting root machine looks like fun , wondering if it’s available in Australia. Thank you Bunny love your content

very helpful thanks!

I love Boxwood! It was a challenge for a Maine garden, which has such long winters and short growing season. I hadn’t seen ig growing in this area. I think I tried7 types, and have been pretty grateful to have the beauty of this evergreen here. Some dwarf plants were being discarded from a local estate when the property was divided for descendants after some generations. They have been here now for 25 years, and I just moved most of them earlier this year. I dug some big cubes with globes on top, with the help of a strong nephew, and they look ok. At the base of one of these, I was able to dig 8 smalle plants, where the lower branches had rooted. Hopefully the will make a hedge, though I know they will be competing with some Norway spruce, that have been the property boundary that has too much of a story to write here. Basically I would like them out, but have only managed to denude the trunk as far as I could. Neighbors want them and my husband planted them… you inspired me to find some blight-resistant varieties here in the states, and am glad I recently received a six-pack of ‘Little Missy’ for a new herb garden next to the house.And I am taking some small cuttings! Bunny,thank-you!

I gave this a try last year on some better buxus plants I purchased. I have 0 success 😬 I’m not made for gardening lol. I just purchased 150 better buxus plants for the back of my garden. Let’s hope i have more look with them in the ground.

Bunny .... I want to tell you that I had a Golden Celebration Austen rose growing in my front garden in Australia. We wanted to move it to the back garden rose patch so we did your Wine Box Rose replant and I want you to know its growing so well and we have two tiny buds forming ! I thought we might have flowers in a year or two but .... here they are ! We call it the Bunny Wine Box rose now! lol Thank you so much - so enjoy your channel !

Thank you for the wonderful information, and such good news on the new boxwood varieties. I know in US there are also some new blight resistant boxwood cultivars starting to get into the market, 'NewGen Independence', 'NewGen Freedom'. Besides there are some older buxus microphylla hybrids(Winter Gem, winter green, sprinter etc.), they seems to be more resilient. I wonder if those hybrid varieties were similarly affected in UK or if they not really used in UK at all? Here in US, nurseries seem only sell hybrids from a number of years ago, they no longer sell any straight buxus sempervirens varieties.

I never suffered from blight with my box, but I did suffer from box moth. I had to spray my box balls once a fortnight and again whenever it rained. It was such a chore that I decided to give up and plant taxus and lonicera nitada instead. I shan't be planting buxus again until they breed a moth-proof plant. I admire your courage, Bunny, truly, but spraying against Asian Box Moth is no joke. I sincerely hope you escape it.

Oh, yes! 😅 Indeed, propagating using cuttings is addictive!! Always testing. I hadn’t thought of boxwood cuttings, though. 🤦‍♀️ How do I know if it’s too late to plug some in the ground? We dipped down to 28° F last night and normally have plenty of moisture through the winter with a low of single digits. Usually sporadic and short lived. Too late??

Love your videos, so useful. What do you have growing up the roof behind you, or is it my eyes?

Bunny, I have a Hydropod and I love taking cuttings, it’s very addictive, I’ve never done box before but I’m trying it now, after watching you (thank you so much for your brilliant videos) had the cuttings in there for a month now and still no sign of roots, how long do you think they will take?

👌✨

I live in The Netherlands and we have box that is resistant to moth🙈🌿 I mis the box in your garden 🙃 but thats what we do sometimes, take a leap of faith and start all over again in the garden with new plants.🙆‍♀️🌺

i have something eating my boxwoods its a white substance love your channel

Are these available in the states? May I request a video on knot gardens? Would love some tips. Thank you!

Can we now buy these in the UK? I would give Skylight a go, I had very tall topiaries for box, they were over a metre and very thick and last week and the week before I had covid. The end of last week I was feeling well enough to go out in the garden for an hour and got the shock of my life when I saw all four feature plants had bitten the dust. I went in nearly crying and my partner had them all out and burned straight away, he just meant to get rid of the disease and didn't really mind about losing the plants, but on top of feeling pretty bad from covid I felt really really bad about losing my four beautiful feature plants. I have bought four Torbay dazzlers and a sea of cyclamen to cover my losses for now but would like to start regrowing plants to eventually replace my lost babies.

Great video, thanks! Just wondering about the legality of propaging thse new plants, do they have any licences ect or can i freely multiply for my garden? Thanks again!

I bought 750 box plugs/plants in trays. from Holland supposedly blight resistant. I've lost 4 or 5 over the past 2 years. I also did a cloud cut on my massive box and it's loaded with blight. My gardener was aghast that I have not used the top buxus or the xen-tari. He could not figure out why it is still alive and thriving (still with blight). It happens to be near a bird feeding station and several times a day the blue tits dive into the clouds and pick off the catepillar and has controlled that population. I'm trying to create box hedging around my veg patches and they are now tall enough to cut but I'm confused on the advice I've been given. I want to cut the tall ones but I need them to spread sideways. I've been told that where you cut is where it will grow so I do not know if I should be cutting the sides of the plants rather than the tops. Needless to say I pamper them with top buxus feed and strawl and chippings but the blight is starting to spread. Any suggestions? more feed? or zen-tari?

I live in a very cold climate in Canada. Can I still tale cuttings in Nov if it will freeze hard all winter

I’ve more or less accepted that I will lose all my box bushes to the moths. Even though I sprayed they took a big hit this year.

what does boxwood blight look like dont know what to look for i live in bc canada thankyou

What tool are you using to dig up your boxwoods? It sounds like a ratcheting instrument. I have to dig up my boxwoods too.

When you start growing from cuttings it’s so hard to get rid of any clippings at all!

I was told to root red twig dogwood in bundles and it worked well. But my boxwood cuttings all failed then the mother plant died as well. :(

Try the japanese holly are ilex crenata🌿

Please explain the love of Box. I don't understand why it is so popular with so many people. I find the odor offensive, and since it is susceptible to blight, and there are alternative plants I am baffled. Is there historic significance?
