RHS Allium Nest Box

The striking Allium nesting box, part of the Royal Horticultural Society's Wildlife Collection, features a high-quality 32mm design with a dark green and natural oak color scheme inspired by the RHS. Handcrafted in the UK with care, this beautiful box is made from sustainably sourced British timber by artisans with autism and learning disabilities, and inspired by the Royal Horticultural Society.  

The Alluim has a tall, peaked roof. Two screws on the roof's side secure a removable lid panel that allows access to the nest box for cleaning. It is recommended to unscrew this panel annually, clean the box, and then reattach the panel when finished. This simple process keeps the nest box clean.   

For optimal use, mount the nest box 2-4 meters high on a tree or wall in a shaded location out of direct sunlight. Clean the nest box annually between September and January when unoccupied by simply removing the back panel and washing with boiling water. This allows for thorough sanitization during the non-breeding seaso

This box features a 32mm entrance hole with a hole protector, ideal for small birds such as blue tits. We have routed a hanging hole in the back of the box to facilitate hanging it on a tree or fence. The Steeple box was designed by 'Sammy', an autistic designer. Our boxes are chemical-free, so customers can stain them if desired, but untreated larch wood will naturally weather for 40-60 years.
