Buxus sempervirens 'Rotundifolia'
Purple bronze leaves in winter.
Common Name: German Boxwood
This statuesque boxwood reaches a narrow 6-8' with round, shiny leaves held pleasingly outward from the branches. A nice large texture. Hardy at least into the upper reaches of USDA zone 6, possibly colder. The colder the winter temperature, the more purple bronze the leaves will turn. Otherwise, part shade to full sun with regular summer water at least until established.
