Glossy green leaves on evergreen, dense, pyramidal small shrub. Excellent for hedges. Retains green foliage color nicely throughout the year. Green Mountain Boxwood is a naturally deer-resistant evergreen shrub that makes for an excellent year-round hedge. The plant’s upright and naturally conical habit makes it popular both among topiary fans and those merely wanting a uniquely shaped border in their outdoor space. Clusters of small greenish-cream flowers appear in the spring, giving the hedge a pleasant short-lived fragrance on top of its usual scent.
