Comments:
This boxwood is noted for it columnar form and dark green, compact foliage. Excellent used as a specimen plant and used in a hedge planting provided that the plants are spaced close together. Takes pruning quite well to control form of the plant. English boxwoods grow best in the cooler climates in the Eastern US. Have serious problem in the Coastal South.
