Boxwood is the standard for hedges here in the south and in many other climates across the United States. It’s limbs and leaves have the ability to seamlessly tie themselves together to create a beautiful border, hedge, or even a garden maze.
Boxwoods can withstand frequent pruning and shearing and most times will not appear “leggy” or sparse after a clipping.
We recommend these types of shrubs to those homeowners that want clean lines and a manicured appearance in their landscaping. It might be just what you are looking for!
