Description
Add timeless structure and reliable greenery to your garden with the Green Mountain Boxwood (Buxus x 'Green Mountain'), a hardy evergreen shrub known for its naturally pyramidal shape and upright growth habit. Reaching a mature height of 5 feet and width of 3 feet, this boxwood is ideal for accent hedges, garden borders, or as a formal vertical element in symmetrical plantings.
Thriving in Zones 5–8, Green Mountain prefers full sun to part shade, regular watering, and well-drained soil. Its compact, upright form requires little maintenance and responds beautifully to pruning, allowing you to maintain a crisp silhouette year-round. With rich green foliage that holds its color even in the winter months, Green Mountain offers season-to-season elegance in both formal and informal landscapes. This is one of the most cold-hardy boxwoods available, making it a dependable and sophisticated choice for northern gardens.
