BOXWOOD, Dwarf English (Buxus suffruticosa). This is the roundleaved, slow- 
growing, compact variety frequently found on 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. Young plants increase in value each year and serve to 
make the garden more beautiful.
