15-18 in. $3.00, 18-21 in. $4.50. 
BOXWOOD, Blue Pyramidal (Buxus sempervirens glauca). This variety is rare, but its tall, 
pyramidal habit and beautiful blue-green foliage make it sure to become better known, more 
extensively used. 18-24 in. $3.50, 24-30 in. $4.50, 30-36 in. $6.00. 
BOXWOOD, Oriental (Buxus japonica). Fast growing variety with large, light green foliage;

$4.50, 30-36 in. $7.50, 36-42 in. $10.00. 
BOXWOOD, Standard (Buxus sempervirens). Often referred to as Standard Box because of its 
general use. No doubt more of this useful variety is grown than all other varieties combined. Me- 
dium grower, maturing at a height of 15 ft. or more with equal spread. Slender, pointed, dark green 
leaves; pyramidal in form when young, broader as the plant becomes older. Sometimes confused 
with its more dwarf companion, Buxus suffruticosa, which is a close rival for first place. Buxus 
sempervirens has many uses and has always been in great demand. Especially useful in hedges, 
borders, and as specimens. Requires good soil and drainage.

BOXWOOD, Dwarf English (B. suffruticosa). This is the round-leaved, slow growing, compact 
variety frequently found on the old estates here in Virginia. Specimens several hundred years old 
having a spread of 8 or 10 ft. are still the pride of many of the famous gardens but the enormous 
prices offered for these old specimens have moved many of them to new homes. We recommend 
purchasing young plants, enjoying them as they grow and increase in value, and at same time 
serve to make your garden more beautiful.
