    DESCRIPTION

    North Star® Boxwood is a cold-hardy, dense evergreen shrub selected for its naturally rounded shape and excellent year-round structure. With small, glossy dark green leaves that maintain their color even through harsh winters, it offers reliable form and foliage in formal gardens, foundation plantings, and low hedges. Its compact size and tidy habit make it ideal for use in symmetrical designs, borders, or as a low-maintenance alternative to more labor-intensive clipped hedges.

    Reaching about 2.5 to 3 feet tall and wide, North Star® grows slowly and responds well to light pruning, though it rarely requires much shaping. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soil. As with most boxwoods, proper spacing and airflow help prevent disease, and a layer of mulch can help protect shallow roots in extreme cold.

    Key Features:

    • Dense, naturally rounded habit (2.5–3 ft. tall and wide)

    • Glossy, dark green foliage holds color through winter

    • Cold-hardy and well-suited for northern climates

    • Excellent for borders, foundation plantings, and low hedges

    • Tolerates full sun to part shade

    • Low maintenance; minimal pruning required

    • Hardy in USDA Zones 5–9

    North Star® Boxwood brings reliable evergreen structure and year-round interest to formal and informal landscapes alike.

    Shipping Methods

    Orders will be shipped via either UPS Ground or FedEx Home Delivery.

     

    Orders are generally in route for 2-5 business days (depending on where you live).

     

    We are sticklers about packaging and shipping your order in a way that guarantees healthy plants upon arrival. If plants are damaged on arrival, just let us know and we'll send you new ones or offer a full refund.

     

    All of our plants are container grown and shipped with the soil and roots fully intact. We DO NOT ship your plants bare-root. Being shipped as a containered plant greatly reduces the risk of the plant not surviving the transit to your home.
