Green tower boxwood in a garden design. This plant works well anywhere you need a vertical specimen in a tight space. Very columnar form produces lustrous dark green leaves with lighter underside. A single green tower boxwood can be used in the garden like an exclamation point to accent the curve in a path or to draw the eye upward and give the illusion of more space in a small garden.
This plant is often used for tall thin topiaries just as it was centuries ago. Preference for limestone soils with ph 6 or higher. Saved by julie fukuda.
