Buxus x ‘Green Mountain’ (Green Mountain Boxwood)

Green Mountain Boxwood gives you a bit more height and a more upright outline than the rounder types. It is a Canadian Sheridan Nurseries hybrid, and is useful for formal hedging or as a vertical accent with better winter performance than many standard boxwoods. It is a nice middle-ground choice if rounded boxwoods feel too low and columnar ones feel too severe.
