North Star® Boxwood
The North Star® Boxwood is that perfect plant – it makes beautiful round balls and neat hedges without needing clipping. It is ideal for low hedges or specimen plants, and because of its naturally dense and compact form, it is solid and neat enough to look perfect naturally. Use it for hedges and borders around beds, as highlights and specimens in beds, alone or in groups, or plant it in boxes and pots to create that classic boxwood ball. Not only does it need no trimming, it stays a rich green all winter long, even in zone 5, where most other varieties turn brown, and can even die.
