How entrance transformation bundles work.
Each bundle follows our five-layer companion planting framework — from background structural shrubs through mid-height perennials, textural grasses, seasonal colour, and low carpet planting at the front edge. The species within each layer have been selected for harmony of height, leaf form, flower colour, and seasonal succession, so the scheme looks considered and complete from spring through winter.
Choose your theme.
Each bundle has a distinct mood and colour palette. The Contemporary Monochrome pairs cloud-pruned Bay Laurel with a restrained green-and-white scheme. The White Evening Garden uses Portuguese Laurel lollipops with soft white flowering perennials that glow at dusk. Browse the collection to find the palette that resonates with your home.
Select your tier.
Standard delivers a balanced, well-proportioned scheme with 22 plants (2 topiary + 20 border). Impactful increases to 36 plants (2 topiary + 34 border) for greater density, more species variety, and a fuller, more layered result — closer to what you'd see in a professionally designed front garden.
Receive and plant.
Your entire bundle arrives in a single delivery, with every plant labelled and a detailed planting layout guide showing exactly where each species should be positioned. The guide is calibrated to your tier — Standard and Impactful each have their own spacing and layering diagram.
Choose your impact level
All bundles include the same hand-matched topiary pair. The difference is in the quantity and size of complementary border plants—affecting coverage, establishment speed, and immediate visual impact.

Frequently Asked Questions
Every bundle includes a hand-matched topiary pair — the structural centrepiece of your entrance scheme — plus a curated selection of companion border plants designed to surround and complement the topiary. The companion planting is arranged in layers: structural background plants, mid-height perennials, textural grasses or ferns, seasonal flowering varieties, and low ground-cover at the front edge.
The exact species vary by theme. For example, The Contemporary Monochrome includes a pair of cloud-pruned Bay Laurel lollipops with companion planting featuring Hydrangea 'Annabelle', Astrantia 'White Giant', Carex 'Evergold', Dryopteris affinis, and Ophiopogon 'Nigrescens'. The White Evening Garden pairs Portuguese Laurel lollipops with white-flowering Digitalis, Geranium, Astrantia, Stachys byzantina, and Hydrangea.
Every bundle also includes a printed planting layout guide specific to your chosen theme and tier, showing exactly where each plant should be positioned for the best result.
What's the difference between Standard and Impactful?
Both tiers include the same topiary pair and follow the same five-layer planting framework. The difference is density and variety.
Standard includes 22 plants total (2 topiary + 20 border) and delivers a clean, proportionate entrance scheme — enough variety to create texture and seasonal interest with a single pass through each planting layer. It suits most UK front entrances and is manageable to maintain.
Impactful includes 36 plants total (2 topiary + 34 border) and extends each layer with greater repetition, additional species, and denser ground coverage. It produces a fuller, more abundant result — the kind of entrance planting that looks professionally designed. It's best suited to larger entrance areas or buyers who want maximum visual impact from day one.
Do the bundles include pots or planters?
No — bundles include plants only. Topiary arrives in its nursery grow pot, and companion plants arrive in individual pots ready for planting directly into the ground. If you plan to keep your topiary in containers rather than planting in-ground, we recommend selecting planters separately to suit your entrance style and dimensions. Our team can advise on appropriate pot sizes for your chosen bundle.
Are the companion plants perennial, or will I need to replant each year?
The vast majority of companion plants in our bundles are hardy perennials, evergreen shrubs, or semi-evergreen grasses — they return year after year without replanting. We deliberately avoid annuals and bedding plants that require seasonal replacement. The goal is a scheme that matures and improves over time, not one that needs refreshing every spring.
Some species are herbaceous perennials that die back in winter and re-emerge in spring (such as Astrantia and Digitalis), but the evergreen components (topiary, grasses, ferns, ground cover) maintain structure through the colder months so your entrance never looks bare.
How do I choose between the different themed bundles?
Start with colour palette and mood. Each bundle is named and designed around a specific aesthetic:
The Contemporary Monochrome is built on a restrained green-and-white palette with dark foliage accents — it suits modern builds, rendered facades, and homeowners who prefer clean, architectural planting with tonal contrast.
The White Evening Garden uses soft white flowers against silver and green foliage — it's designed to glow in low light, making it particularly effective for north-facing entrances or homes where you arrive after dark. The palette feels romantic and cottage-influenced but with structural topiary keeping it grounded.
Browse each bundle's product page for full species lists, lifestyle imagery, and mood descriptions. If you're unsure which theme suits your home, send us a photo of your entrance and we'll recommend the best match.
Does my entrance need to be a certain size for these bundles to work?
The bundles are designed for typical UK front entrances — the planting area either side of your front door where you'd like the scheme to sit. As a practical minimum, you'll need approximately 60cm depth from house wall to front edge and 80cm width on each side of your doorway.
Standard tier works beautifully in moderate planting areas (roughly 0.5–0.8m² per side). Impactful tier is designed for larger areas (0.8m²+ per side) where the additional plants have room to establish without crowding.
If your entrance is narrower or more constrained, Standard tier is the better choice — it delivers proportionate coverage without overcrowding a compact space. If you have a generous entrance with deep borders, Impactful will fill the space with the richness and layering it deserves.
Can I use these bundles for a back door, side entrance, or patio doorway?
Yes — the design principles translate to any threshold. While the bundles are optimised for front entrance proportions and lighting conditions, there's nothing stopping you from using them at rear patio doors, side passages, or courtyard entrances. The key consideration is light: check the individual bundle's product page for aspect guidance. Bundles designed for shade-tolerant planting will work on north-facing or sheltered entrances of any kind, while sun-loving schemes need at least four hours of direct light regardless of position.
How long does it take to plant an Entrance Transformation Bundle?
For an experienced gardener, expect 2–3 hours for a Standard bundle and 3–4 hours for an Impactful bundle. This includes preparing the soil, positioning plants according to the layout guide, planting at the correct depths, watering in, and applying mulch.\
If you're less experienced, allow a half-day. The planting layout guide is designed to be straightforward — every plant is labelled with a number that corresponds to its position on the diagram, so you're following a clear map rather than making design decisions as you go.
We recommend having the following ready before your delivery arrives: a garden fork, trowel, watering can or hose, general-purpose compost, and bark mulch for finishing.
Because Every Entrance Says Something
Most don’t say enough.
We started TopiaryTwins after noticing something simple: the homes that stayed with you — the townhouses in Chelsea, the cottages in the Cotswolds, the villas of Florence — all had one thing in common: they framed their entrances with intent.
It wasn’t landscaping. It was intention.
A quiet signal of pride. A welcome. A statement. But today? Most homes leave that moment blank. And when the first impression is empty, everything after feels quieter. So we built a brand to change that — to bring sculptural form, balance, and quiet weight to the spaces that greet and define us. Whether it’s a brick doorstep or a long gravel drive, our paired trees do more than decorate.
They complete the home.
