Green Mountain Boxwood – 1 Gallon Upright Evergreen Shrub (Buxus x ‘Green Mountain’)
Add year-round elegance and structure to your landscape with the Green Mountain Boxwood, a premium evergreen shrub known for its naturally upright growth habit, dense foliage, and outstanding cold hardiness.

Its rich green foliage remains attractive throughout the growing season and holds its color well through winter, providing dependable year-round interest. Green Mountain Boxwood is easy to maintain and responds well to pruning, allowing gardeners to preserve its naturally refined shape or create customized landscape accents. This adaptable evergreen thrives in full sun to partial shade and performs best in moist, well-drained soils.
