You can dodge the problems with box blight by choosing the Box-leaved Honeysuckle instead of traditional Box. Lonicera pileata plants are tough, quick-growing and drought tresistant. Box-leaved Honeysuckle is a low, spreading, evergreen shrub with glossy leaves. The display is enhanced by creamy spring flowers and purple autumn berries. Excellent for low maintenance, compact hedging, plants are fast-growing and easy to trim in summer and autumn. Height: 1m (39"). Spread: 2.5m (8').

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
