Boxwood Winter Gem - Buxus microphylla Winter Gem - Boxwood Winter Gem is considered the classic evergreen hedge or shrub plant in the 2-3 foot hedge range. When you think about defining or separating different spaces in the garden this is the boxwood for you. Boxwood Winter Gem can be used to hide a heat pump or foundation and is especially lovely against red brick. When the Boxwood Winter Gem is used as a foundation plant it becomes beautiful background foliage for other colorful plant varieties.

This is the boxwood 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.

Hydrangea Cityline Venice
Hydrangea Cityline Venice the natural dwarf habit of this lovely Bigleaf Hydrangea from Germany is compact and dense, with far more flowering stems than most others. Hydrangea Cityline Venice is small enough for containers or any tight spot

Karley Rose Grass, Pennisetum orientale, has dark green foliage topped with long-blooming (June till frost) rose lavender plumes. I knew Karley Rose Grass was another of a long list of great plants that I had to add to the garden.
