Buxus microphylla 'Faulkner'

Buxus microphylla 'Faulkner': Glossy Green and a Rounded Outline

Faulkner boxwood offers a rounded upright shape clothed in glossy leaves that hold their colour into winter. The foliage gives the planting a dependable evergreen framework, while small fragrant spring flowers add a quieter detail. Its restrained scale makes it useful wherever the garden needs a lasting outline rather than a large shrub.

Plant Characteristics:

• Height: 60-80 cm
• Spread: 50-60 cm
• Flower Colour: Green
• Flowering Period: Early Spring
• Foliage: Green
• Sunlight Requirements: Full Sun / Full Shade / Partial Sun
• Soil Requirements: Moist to Average Soil / Well-Drained Soil / Average to Dry Soil

Uses and Benefits:

Use Faulkner for rounded accents beside a path, a low formal hedge or individual topiary. Its glossy leaves and upright-rounded framework create a firm outline among plants that disappear in winter.

Care Instructions:

Shape lightly to retain a balanced rounded crown and keep the base of a hedge open to light. Provide drainage and water while establishing. Young plants in exposed positions benefit from protection against drying winter winds.
