Buxus Green Gem

Green Gem Boxwood

A small ornamental boxwood valued for its dense, dark green foliage that retains its colour all year round. This compact variety, forming a round, dense bush, is ideal for low hedges, borders, or container plantings. It is resistant to cold and pruning, making it an excellent choice for structured shapes in formal or modern gardens. In winter, its evergreen foliage provides a lovely touch of greenery. Water sparingly, taking care not to over-wet the soil as this can lead to root rot. Prune regularly to maintain its compact shape and avoid dead branches. In the fall, add a layer of mulch around the base of the plant to protect the roots from frost. If the boxwood is exposed to cold winds, you can wrap it in a winter fleece to limit the risk of drying out the foliage.
