Preserved 1x, or 2x, or 3x Ball Topiary

Single, double or triple — which ball form fits the space?

• Single ball — the calm one: tabletops, pedestals, hall consoles, and paired flanking where ceilings are low
• Double ball — height and rhythm beside doors, fireplaces and corridors without feeling heavy
• Triple ball — the vertical statement for tall rooms, stairwells and flanked entries

Boxwood or juniper foliage?

Boxwood preserves into the classic tight, deep-green sphere; juniper carries a softer, more textural surface and tends to outlast it. Both are real foliage preserved at peak — the process is on how we preserve — and both want the same nothing: no water, no sun, an occasional dusting, indoors.

How do designers stage the ball forms?

Singles work in odd numbers on tables and in threes down a long console; one alone belongs on a pedestal, where the sphere reads as sculpture. Doubles and triples want flanking positions — both sides of a door, a fireplace, the foot of a stair — and enough ceiling that the top ball keeps air above it. The pot completes the piece: a heavy planter grounds a triple visually, and a low bowl turns a single into a centerpiece. Hospitality buyers order in matched sets for corridors precisely because preserved pieces stay identical — no growth, no drift, no odd one out in year three.
