Growing & Maintenance Tips
Boxwoods can tolerate full sun to full shade, dry to drought conditions, and a range of soil types. They can be pruned any time of the year, and used for topiary, hedging, and stand-alone specimens. Young plants benefit from winter protection (burlap wrap) in an exposed location.
Notes
Notable specimens can be found at The A.M. (Mac) Cuddy Garden, Strathroy, Ontartio. This boxwood cultivar is a Canadian introduction, part of the Sheridan 'Green Series', developed and introduced by Sheridan Nurseries, Ontario.
