Buxus sujfruticosa 
(OLD ENGLISH OR DWARF BOXWOOD) 
I T is to this species of Boxwood that so much history and 
romance cling because of its close association and use in the 
gorgeous gardens of early Europe and Colonial America. Buxus 
sujfruticosa does not re-seed itself; it must be propagated 
from cuttings taken from growing specimens. Because of its 
slow growth it is ideal for low hedges, garden edging, walk 
borders or window box plantings. It can easily be held to small 
dimensions and its very dense, compact foliage forms solid 
walls of living beauty. If it is permitted to grow without any 
pruning whatever, it forms puffs and billows of magnificent, 
naturally symmetrical irregularity. It is the most widely used 
shrub to form sharp, clearly defined, close-cropped outline of 
the geometric patterns in formal gardens.
