Buxus s. 'Aureo-variegata' DC Globe
Reaching a height of about 3 to 6 feet, Variegated Common Boxwood features small, ovate leaves with creamy white edges that create a striking contrast against the deep green background. The variegated foliage adds a touch of visual interest and elegance to gardens year-round. Inconspicuous flowers may appear in late spring to early summer. Variegated Common Boxwood thrives in partial shade to full sun and well-draining soil. Its unique foliage and compact growth make it a favored choice for formal hedges, borders, foundation plantings, and even container plantings. The variegation adds a touch of sophistication and texture to outdoor spaces, making it an appealing addition to gardens and landscapes.
This plant can easily accept being clipped into any shape--hedging, topiary, etc--but will also look just as lovely in its unpruned form.
