BOXWOOD (Buxus) 
The first group of Broad-leaved Evergreens to be extensively used as landscape 
material in America. The old Boxwood gardens of Virginia and other states of the 
South are recognized as being among the most interesting gardens in America and 
are visited annually by thousands of tourists. 
Boxwoods are long-lived, slow to medium growers, beautiful throughout the year. 
They have many uses in both old and modern gardens, are especially noted for the 
bordering of driveways, walks, perennial beds, Azalea groups, and other Broad- 
leaved Evergreens and flowering plants. The taller species are even used as screens. 
Boxwoods always carry a certain amount of dignity, yet can be effectively used in 
the small, modern garden. There are many varieties; we offer the most popular, 
practical ones. 
BOXWOOD, Belgian. Rather dwarf, slow-growing, compact. 
$3.75; 18-24 in., $6.00; 24-30 in., $8.00. 
Blue Pyramidal (Buxus sempervirens glauca). Its tall, pyramidal habit and beautiful blue- 
green foliage make it sure to become better known and more widely used. 18-24 in., 
$4.50; 24-30 in., $6.00. 
Oriental (Buxus japonica). Fast grower, large, light green foliage. Especially adapted to the 
South, where climate is too hot for other varieties. 15-18 in., $3.50; 18-24 in., $5.00; 
24-30 in., $7.00; 30-36 in., $9.50. 
BOXWOOD, Standard (Buxus sempervirens). Often referred to as American or Standard Box 
because of its general use. No doubt more of this useful type is grown than all other varie- 
ties combined. Medium grower, maturing at a height of 15 ft. or more, with equal spread. 
Slender, pointed, dark green leaves, plant pyramidal in form when young, broader as it be- 
comes alder. 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 as specimens, in hedges and borders. Requires fertile soil 
and good drainage.

BOXWOOD, Dwarf English (Buxus suffruticosa). This is the round-leaved, slow-growing, compact 
Boxwood 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.
