That looks lovely. We had a couple of buxus bushes in pots outside our front door but they didn't seem to like being there for some reason so they're now in the back garden, where the fussy things do like it, and have been replaced by plastic ones. I have got fairy lights on them now though and you can't tell they're plastic.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7

Your tree looks lovely, HHoD. I do like holly. Re-planting big containers always seems to take longer than expected, doesn't it?
