Landscaping Green Mountain Boxwood

Green Mountain Boxwood can be planted anywhere, but it really shines when planted in decorative pots and used to adorn common outdoor living areas. Use it to decorate pool lounges, decks, patios, balconies, entryways, and the like. 

It can also be planted directly in the ground to transform walkways, garden paths, and driveways, giving them a more formal aesthetic. Install it as an elegant accent piece in a larger garden bed or make it a mass planted green mountain boxwood hedge. 

Green Mountain Boxwood Care

Green Mountain Boxwood resists deer and rabbits. However, it is susceptible to some pests, depending upon the region. The most notable pests include nematodes, boxwood leaf miners, boxwood mites, and boxwood psyllids. 

Green Mountain Boxwood grows in USDA hardiness zones 4 through 9. 

This perennial enjoys being planted in full sun with partial afternoon shade. Adequate morning sun exposure will ensure vigorous, densely patterned leaves. Dappled afternoon shade will ensure that leaves are not scorched. If possible, place in a somewhat sheltered location to prevent strong winter winds from bronzing the plant if you live in colder climates.

Water regularly or as needed for optimal color and consistent foliage. In extreme heat, water more often.

This boxwood likes loamy (sandy-clay) soil that drains well. Mulch well to protect its shallow and delicate roots. Fertilize with tree and shrub food, as needed. 

Green Mountain Boxwood Size

Green Mountain Boxwood grows slowly to about 5 feet tall and 3 feet wide. 

Green Mountain Boxwood Pruning

Prune after the danger of frost has passed. Thin plants yearly to remove any dead branches and to improve air circulation. Green Mountain Boxwood readily accepts pruning, shaping, and thoughtful trimming into desired forms. Shape it into rounded or fluted cones, spheres, or upward spirals.  Due to its slower growth rate, it will keep its shape longer.
