Please note: During winter, it is common for discoloration on the foliage of English box. It is due to severe frosts, where our products are grown in the coldest parts of Victoria. They will sort themselves out in spring, however, if it does bother you, please treat with Dolomite Lime, and a slow release fertilizer a month later.
