Boxwood Winter Gem | Buxus microphylla Winter Gem. - The Boxwood Winter Gem is considered the classic evergreen boxwood hedge plant in the 2-3 foot hedge range. When you think about defining or separating areas in the garden this is the boxwood hedging for you. Boxwood Winter Gem can be used to hide a heat pump, as foundation plants and is especially pretty against red brick homes. When the Boxwood Winter Gem is used as a foundation plant it becomes beautiful background foliage for other colorful plant varieties.
This is the evergreen boxwood shrub that keeps its color over the winter months. You'll want to use color around the Boxwood Winter Gem for contrast and separation. I suggest any red berried hollies for winter along with a few of the ornamental grasses. For the rest of the year any red flowering or red leaved plants make for a stunning appearance. Care Instructions: Follow a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Feed the Boxwood Winter Gem with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a tidy and neat appearance, shear annually to shape. Watering is reduced after establishment.
