Winter Green Boxwood Shrub

Care Guide

PLANTING AND CARE OUTDOORS - Boxwoods are easily grown in a wide range of soils with good drainage, avoid wet soggy soils. Dig a hole approximately twice as wide as your new plant’s root ball and deep enough so that the top of the root ball is parallel with the ground level, place the plant in the hole and ensure that it is situated upright, use the excavated soil to backfill around the root ball, tamp down to ensure air pockets are eliminated, thoroughly soak with a hose as you fill in the dirt. A 2-3 inch layer of organic hardwood mulch is strongly recommended, it will help retain moisture and discourage weed growth.

WATER your Boxwoods twice a week during the first growing season to establish a strong root system, increase frequency during extremely hot days, you should always verify the top 2-3 inches of soil, if dry to the touch is time to water, you can reduce the frequency of watering once it is established.

LIGHT, thrives in full sun.

FERTILIZE your Boxwoods during spring before new growth begins. Applying a slow-release, 180 days duration, well balanced fertilizer is probably the simplest solution and least expensive.

PRUNING is recommended to shape plant as desired.
