Crape Myrtle Topiary Vase - Ancient Style
This is a living topiary plant, trained into a decorative vase-shaped framework. Interlaced stems and expressive proportions give this design its sculptural character. The open lattice creates depth through the framework and encourages a view of the living structure from more than one angle. Ancient Style is the name of the design.
Why Choose This Vase?
Choose this style when the garden calls for a focal point with an individual outline. The woven framework works particularly well against plain walls, calm paving and planting that leaves room for the form to be appreciated.
Features of Crape Myrtle
Crape Myrtle brings seasonal change to the trained framework. Green foliage and summer-to-autumn flowers complement the living structure during the growing season, while its deciduous habit reveals more of the stemwork in winter. The bark adds further textural interest. Flowering depends on the growing conditions and season.
Landscaping and Design Uses
- Create a focal point in a courtyard or terrace planting scheme.
- Introduce a sculptural feature beside a garden entrance or seating area.
- Combine the defined vase outline with softer surrounding planting.
Size and Proportions
-
Height to vase rim: 300cm
-
Width (maximum diameter): 98cm
Vase height is measured to the rim of the trained framework. Foliage extends above this; an overall height is stated separately where available.
Preferred Growing Conditions
Choose a warm, sheltered position in full sun with well-drained soil. Water during establishment and check moisture regularly in dry weather, particularly if the plant is kept in a container. In frost-prone gardens, plan suitable winter protection. Maintain the trained outline with careful, species-appropriate pruning, preserving the main woven framework.
