Partial Shade to Full Sun (At Least 3 Hours Of Direct Sunlight)Mature Height 3 - 4 FeetMature Spread 3 - 4 FeetGrowing Zones 4 - 9You may not recognize the name Buxus x 'Green Velvet,' but you likely will recognize the lush, dense true green foliage of this evergreen shrub. The Green Velvet Boxwood is a hardy plant that makes an excellent shrub in front of a home and can be used to divide outdoor spaces, all while providing a bright pop of color. New leaves emerge as a bright green and gradually fade to dark velvety green, and this plant retains its foliage all year.Boxwood is a popular choice for hedges or topiaries. The leaves are relatively small, but the plant has so many branches laden with leaves that it effectively creates a dense, green wall of foliage. Whats more, this plant is deer resistant, making it a great option in areas prone to damage from hungry deer. The Green Velvet Boxwood is grown as a perennial in USDA zones 4 through 9.Green Velvet Boxwood Plant CarePlant this evergreen shrub in full sun to part shade. The Green Velvet Boxwood needs at least 4 hours of daily sunlight to thrive. Water newly planted Boxwood a few times a week during the first year.

Feed the plant in the spring using a balanced slow-release fertilizer.This plant does not require pruning, and if left untrimmed, this Boxwood will form an organic cloud-like look with gently rolling sides. Most people prefer hedges to have a more manicured look, and this variety responds well to routine pruning. At least a few times during the year, a light trim will keep the plant neat, tidy, and looking its best.Green Velvet Boxwood Plant SpacingMature shrubs should be 3 to 4 feet wide and tall. Space Green Velvet Boxwood plants as close as 1.5 to 2 feet apart to create a dense, seamless hedge.
