Planting and care

Plant the 'Green Mountain' boxwood in fall or spring in well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Choose a part-shade spot, especially in warm regions. The shrub also tolerates full sun in cool climates. Allow at least 1 m of spacing between plants. Water regularly during the first growing season to make sure it takes well, especially during summer drought. Once established, boxwood is fairly self-sufficient. Avoid waterlogging and stagnant spots, which encourage fungal diseases.
