Description
The ‘Justin Brouwers’ Dwarf Boxwood is a slow to moderate growing evergreen shrub with a compact mounded form if left to grow naturally. With pruning it can be kept in a globe shape. Its exceptional sun tolerance and small deep-green leaves makes it a great substitute for the popular English Boxwood, which is known to suffer from too much sun.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing in a rounded form to 18 to 24″ tall and wide (depending on pruning), the ‘Justin Brouwers’ Dwarf Boxwood is the perfect choice for use as a low formal hedge or border edger in the landscape, or for planting under low windows or to line paths and walkways in home foundation plantings. Excellent for use in pots, planters and other containers with a diameter of 12 inches or more. A fine addition to Asian or English gardens and formal gardens. Excellent for bonsai.
Suggested Spacing: 12-18″ for hedges, 30″+ for space between plants

I ordered 6 of these, then was told they had run out and would be happy to refund me or I could choose something else. But before I could decide, they wrote to me and told me they would have more soon. I’m very happy with the plants that arrived. They were in great condition. This variety has smaller leaves than most other boxwoods, and are a darker green. I bought these 6 to replace some big box store green velvet boxwoods that didn’t last the year. I would definitely order from this company again.——————————————-We are so glad you are pleased! Beth | WBG
