Buxus microphylla 'Green Beauty'
Buxus microphylla 'Green Beauty' is a dense, evergreen shrub known for its rich green foliage, compact growth habit, and excellent heat and drought tolerance. It maintains its vibrant color year-round, with small, glossy leaves and a naturally rounded shape that responds well to pruning. Typically reaching 3 to 5 feet tall and wide, it’s ideal for low hedges, borders, topiary, or foundation plantings. ‘Green Beauty’ performs best in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA zones 6 to 9, it’s also more resistant to boxwood blight and leaf bronzing than some other varieties, making it a durable and attractive choice for formal or low-maintenance landscapes.
