Wintergreen Boxwood

Wintergreen Boxwood is a classic, cold-hardy evergreen shrub known for its dense, soft green foliage and naturally rounded shape. Perfect for low hedges, borders, and foundation plantings, this versatile shrub holds its color beautifully year-round even through winter. 

It grows slowly and responds well to pruning, making it ideal for formal gardens, topiaries, or neatly trimmed rows. Wintergreen Boxwood is also one of the most cold-tolerant boxwoods, offering structure and greenery even in cooler climates.
