Shaggy Box

Buxus Bodinieri “Shaggy Box”

Shaggy Box is so named due to its slightly drooping habit which makes for an unusual box hedge.  Native to China it is usually found on mountain slopes and forests and as a result, has a high frost tolerance. It will take 10 years to reach 1 metre in height, but definately worth the wait!  

Shaggy Box is ideal to hedge, can be used as an individual shrub and would look equally good in a pot.  The foliage is a light green which adds to its appeal so add one to your collection now. This is a slow growing plant grows to approximately 1m in height. This plant performs best in part shade locations. Great for bonsai. Plant 5 per meter for an optimum hedge.
