Winter Gem Boxwood
Winter Gem is a compact low-growing evergreen shrub. Its lush small leaves are a bright, rich green that gains a gold-bronze hue in cold winters but is one of the first Boxwood to regain its green color in early spring. Winter Gem Boxwood has a neat form that is good for formal hedges. Prefers sunny to partial shade areas in well-drained soils. A carefree plant that is drought tolerant once established.

Shrubs arrived quickly and were packaged securely. Boxwoods were a good size and very healthy. I planted them about a week ago and so far so good.
