Buxus microphylla 'Wintergreen'
Boxwoods are an often used shrub in the our garden. These are among the first planted here. I love the structure that they can provide. The daylilies that are planted in the middle of these areas are dormant now but the boxwoods will remain green all winter. They are sheared at least once in the spring to maintain the shape of the beds.
Buxus sempervirens 'Suffruiticosa'
I love to grow them in containers also. Planted in these containers are dwarf English Boxwood . Because they grow so slowly (sometimes as little as an inch a year) they are perfect to leave in containers for several years.
Wintergreen Boxwood and White Out Hydrangea
They are planted in borders with other plants to give the garden winter interest when the other plants are leafless. They provide a beautiful backdrop for annual plantings.
