Buxus sempervirens is an attractive, compact, rounded, slow-growing, evergreen shrub. It has small, simple, glossy, oval, dark green leaves. The clusters of inconspicuous, pale green to yellow and creamy-white flowers appear in April and May. Buxus sempervirens grows well in a variety of conditions. It prefers partial shade in almost any kind of moist, well-drained, soil as long as there is not too much sand or clay. In full shade, it will not grow as vigorously, and in full sun the foliage may scorch. It must be sheltered from hard winds. Tolerant of pruning and shearing. Tough, hardy and easy to grow. Cultivating around the plant should be avoided because it has shallow roots. Susceptible to certain pests and diseases. Toxic to animals. Buxus sempervirens is great for beds and borders, foundation plantings, growing in containers. It is ideal for topiary clipping. Perfect for hedging and screens.
