Why choose Dense Buxus
Dense foliage is the difference between a hedge that screens and a hedge that merely suggests greenery. At 8–10cm deep, this panel fully hides whatever is behind it — pool equipment, bin bays, neighbour's balcony — in a single layer. Lighter panels need doubling up; this one does not.
The Buxus leaf shape is the classic formal hedge look that suits both heritage and modern houses. Unlike real Buxus, which gets hit by blight and needs constant clipping, this panel holds shape year-round with zero maintenance.

Installation — 3 steps

Real Buxus vs artificial Buxus panel
Real Buxus has two known problems in Australia. Buxus blight, a fungal disease, has wiped out entire hedges across Melbourne and Sydney over the last decade. Second, Buxus needs twice-yearly clipping to hold shape, or it sprawls. An artificial Dense Buxus panel sidesteps both. You get the same formal leaf shape with no fungal risk, no pruning schedule, and three years of warranty-backed colour stability. Read about UV performance →

Frequently Asked Questions
How deep is the Dense Buxus foliage compared to other panels?
Dense Buxus sits at 8–10cm of foliage depth — the thickest in our Buxus range. Light Buxus, by comparison, sits around 5–6cm. The extra density means full screening in one layer rather than doubling up.
Is Dense Buxus suitable for full Australian sun?
Yes. Tri-mix UV protection is embedded in the plastic and the panel carries a 3-year extended warranty for outdoor use across Australia, including direct full sun.
How long will the colour hold outdoors?
Three years under our extended warranty. Real-world installs across Melbourne regularly hold colour past four years under full exposure, which is why the warranty sits above the industry standard 12 months.
Can I install Dense Buxus on a Colorbond fence?
Yes — this is the most common install. Use UV-rated cable ties at roughly 20cm spacing. No drilling into the fence, no special trades. A 3m × 2m fence section takes about 90 minutes for a single installer.
Can I trim the panel to fit an irregular shape?
Yes. Use secateurs or strong shears to cut the rigid backing frame. The foliage hides the cut edge so a trimmed panel looks factory-finished.
Does the artificial Buxus attract pests?
No. The plastic is inert — no blight, no caterpillars, no mites, no moisture retention. This is the single biggest advantage over real Buxus in Australian conditions.
Do you ship Dense Buxus nationally and from Melbourne?
Yes. Free Australia-wide shipping with same-week dispatch from our Melbourne warehouse. Melbourne customers can click-and-collect directly from our site.
What does the 3-year warranty cover?
UV fade, foliage detachment, and structural frame failure under normal outdoor use in Australia.
