Bell lantern
Topiary
Bell-shaped and clipped as a rounded hood over a clear stem, this lantern form is cut tight so the curve runs unbroken down to the rim. The evergreen surface keeps that line through the year. Lantern forms are usually used in pairs, marking a gate, a flight of steps or a terrace.

About sizes
CLT is a container volume in litres, VRL the same in a decorative red container. M is a field-grown plant lifted with its root ball, MGR the same grown in isolation and wire-balled. RN is bare root, available in the dormant season. T is a full standard and POT a planter. Heights are given as a range in centimetres; trunk girth is the circumference measured at one metre. A larger container is not always dearer: a trained or grafted form of the same volume costs more than a bush, and the form is named on the row.
