Buxus sinica var. insularis 'Wintergreen'
Cold hardy boxwood. Versatile & popular in landscape designs. This beauty resonds well to pruning and is just as lovely in a formal setting as it is in a casual area. Wintergeen complements most any garden design. Slow growing - typically gains 2 -3" inches annually.
