Buxaceae
Buxus × 'Green Mound', or 'Green Mound' boxwood, is a compact evergreen shrub known for its naturally rounded and regular habit, which maintains a neat appearance without intensive pruning. Its dense, fine, and lustrous dark green foliage provides elegant and lasting structure to landscapes, summer and winter alike. Highly valued for low borders, formal hedges, structured beds, or container growing, it integrates well into both classic gardens and contemporary designs. More cold-tolerant than many other boxwoods, 'Green Mound' offers good winter hardiness when planted away from drying winds. Easy to maintain, stable, and decorative all year round, it is a reliable choice for creating neat and orderly lines in the garden.
