The Wintergreen Boxwood, also known affectionately as Korean Boxwood, is a beloved choice for gardeners seeking a compact and manageable evergreen. This dwarf variety showcases small, slightly glossy, dark green leaves and maintains a naturally compact shape, ensuring it fits perfectly within your landscape without the risk of overgrowth. It reaches a modest size of 3 to 5 feet in both height and width, making it an ideal choice for those looking for an evergreen that remains manageable over time. One of the Wintergreen Boxwood's notable features is its exceptional adaptability to trimming, allowing garden enthusiasts to sculpt it into precise hedges or intricate topiaries with ease. For those contending with deer in their gardens, this Boxwood offers a sigh of relief due to its impressive deer resistance. Hardy in USDA Zones 4 to 9, the Wintergreen Boxwood is versatile, thriving in conditions ranging from full sun to partial shade. It comes in a convenient 2.5-quart size, perfect for transplanting. Initial care involves watering 2-3 times per week during its first growing season to establish a strong root system. Afterward, this variety stands out for its drought tolerance, making it a low-maintenance option for busy gardeners. The Wintergreen prefers neutral soil and requires good drainage to flourish. This blend of aesthetic appeal, hardiness, and ease of care makes the Wintergreen Boxwood a prime selection for gardeners looking to add a touch of green to their outdoor space with minimal fuss.
