It matures to an average height of 5 feet to 6 feet and an average width of 4 feet to 6 feet, depending on climate and other environmental factors.

The foliage is dark green in color.

Japanese Boxwood can be useful in the landscape in mass plantings, in foundation plantings, in shrub borders, in landscape beds or islands, to add property value, in small groupings, as a hedge or in medians and also in theme gardens, cottage gardens, butterfly gardens, hummingbird gardens or perennial gardens.

More about Japanese Boxwood...

Noteworthy Characteristics

Japanese Boxwood is an attractive evergreen shrub that is most often used as a hedge. It responds very well to shearing so is often selected as a foundation shrub, planted on either side of entryway for accentuation, or as a topiary in square, round, dome, or pyramidal form. If allowed to grow naturally to its mature size it will reach 5 feet or so in height with an equal spread.

Uses

Excellent for use as a single specimen, in groupings, shrub borders, natural hedge rows, clipped formal hedge rows, mass plantings, home foundation plantings, entryways and corners, topiary, container gardens, and asian theme gardens 

Culture & Care Tips

Japanese Boxwood is easy to grow in most any well-drained soils, planters or containers. It has better drought and pest tolerance than other boxwoods. Spring flowers are insignificant, though quite fragrant. Prefers a strong half day of sun or full sun.
