Common Box is a compact, evergreen plant with dark green, glossy leaves, that is ideal for low edging around borders, where it can be kept at 1-2ft high - just prune to desired height in mid-summer in cool weather. Alternatively, Box can be left to grow as a taller hedge, which is effective as a screen. Box plants should be planted 6-8" apart to create a nice, dense hedge. The growth rate is approx 4-6" per year.
