  Boxwood - Green Velvet The Boxwood 'Green Velvet, Buxus 'Green Velvet', also known as Boxwood, is a slow growing broadleaf evergreen that requires little care.

Zones 5-9. * Low Maintenance Plant!

The fiery red flowers appear against the dark green foliage in late spring. It matures to 5 feet tall and 6 feet wide.
