Green Tower® Boxwood (Buxus sempervirens 'Monrue') is a naturally columnar variety with dense, glossy green foliage that stays vibrant year-round. Reaching about 9 feet tall and just 2 to 3 feet wide at maturity, it’s a perfect choice for space-saving hedges, privacy screens, or symmetrical plantings near entries and walkways. It tolerates pruning well, but rarely needs it to maintain its sleek, upright form. Green Tower® is both cold-hardy and heat-tolerant, thriving in a variety of soil types with good drainage.
