Emerald Knoll Korean Boxwood

The Emerald Knoll Korean Boxwood is a broad, spreading variety that is also dense and billowing, looking great even without trimming. The rich green of the leaves is reliable and constant, without winter bronzing. The small leaves are in perfect proportion to the size of the plant – no more than 2 feet wide and 3 to 4 feet across. Use it for informal edging or rounded evergreen accents, or in pots and planters. It can be trimmed too, into super-tight, compact low hedges and globes.

• Naturally compact and rounded, with no trimming needed
• Broad and spreading, yet low, so a few cover a larger area
• Small leaves in perfect proportion to the plant
• Rich winter color and no bronzing
• Hardy in zone 5 and into zone 4

Plant the Emerald Knoll Korean Boxwood in full sun or partial shade – it grows in a wide range of light conditions. Richer, moist but well-drained soil is best, but it will tolerate poorer soils. Generally it is unlikely to have pest or disease problems, and left alone by deer and rabbits. Trim in late spring if you want to, but it will always look great even if you never touch it with clippers.
