🌿 Why Ligustrum Lemon and Lime Topiary Ball Is a Garden Favourite

Prized for its bright, variegated foliage that shifts from soft lime to warm yellow as it matures. The dense, compact growth habit allows it to maintain a perfectly rounded shape with minimal trimming. Its vibrant colour contrasts beautifully with darker greens, greys, and flowering plants, making it a standout focal point in both modern and traditional gardens.

This versatile topiary typically reaches 1–1.5 m in height depending on stem length and pruning style.
