Boxwoods are among the most popular evergreen shrubs, especially for using as a low, tidy hedge or in topiaries. The lustrous, fine-textured dark-green foliage is a floral arranging favorite for cuttings too. Perfect as a garden perimeter or along a fence. Or skip the fence and use boxwood as a natural low barrier if that’s conducive to your space. Also handsomely accents entryways, walkways, or foundation beds. Use as a dependable backdrop for wonderful pops of flowery color from neighboring annuals and perennials. With its easy “shearability,” boxwoods can be hedged into a variety of forms, complemented by colorful companion plants such as begonias, daylilies, and roses. Another option is contrasting boxwood with evergreen shrubs that offer color or textural contrast. Grows to 4’ to 5’ high and wide. Best grown in evenly moist, well-drained soils. Needs less water once established. Provide full to part sun. Feed in spring with an all-purpose fertilizer. Hardiness Zone 8.
