Zone: 4CHICAGOLAND GREEN® BOXWOOD
Buxus x 'Glencoe' is commonly referred to as Chicagoland Green® Boxwood. This fast grower was chosen by the Chicago Botanic Garden for excellent cold hardiness in Chicago which is known for its brutal winters. Chicagoland Green® grows about 2-3 inches a year and features a semi-dwarf, dense, rounded habit and deep, glossy green foliage year round with a compact spreading habit. It resembles an English boxwood with a uniform habit.
Chicagoland Green® Boxwood thrives in full sun to partial shade in average, well-drained soils. It would benefit from protection from winter winds to reduce tip dieback.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining soil, selecting a location that offers full sun to partial shade. Buxus varieties are known for their shallow root systems, so consistent watering is vital to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during the first growing season. Prune as needed in late spring or early summer to maintain your desired form, avoiding late-season pruning which can stimulate new growth susceptible to winter damage.
