For any box growers here, I thought that this article in the March edition of GW magazine would offer some hope!  It would interesting to know if anyone else has tried these varieties.

    @Plantminded That is very interesting, news to me. Already in my bookmarks will be interesting to see how things develop. The dreaded caterpillars are also still a big problem but this has to be a good thing.
    I am sure the staff at Levens Hall are hoping that this is the way forward.
    I have worked as a Gardener for 24 years. My latest garden is a new build garden on heavy clay.

    I missed the Levens Hall story.  That is a tragedy.
