Buxus Winter Gem features foliage that is lime-green, glossy, and held densely. It typically grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide but is often trimmed to much smaller sizes as a hedge. Buxus Winter Gem can be clipped into a small hedge or used to create elaborate patterns as found in parterre gardens. It is often used for topiary, added to mixed plantings, or maintained in a container. For a box hedge, space the plants 30 cm apart.
