Boxwood
Buxus Green Mountain
Buxus Green Mountain (Boxwood) is a compact upright evergreen shrub with fine bright green leaves that may bronze in winter. Buxus Green Mountain produces small clusters of green-cream flowers in spring. This adaptable boxwood prefers part shade and well-drained soils, as it can burn in full sun. Buxus Green Mountain is drought tolerant once established. Its naturally cone-shaped habit makes Buxus Green Mountain an excellent choice for topiary forms, formal hedges, and structured landscape designs.
