They are also slow growing which means less maintenance in between hedging. Boxwood are characterized in the landscape by their globular shape and small, elliptical glossy green foliage. Small, insignificant clusters of chartreuse flowers appear in early spring and fade amongst the foliage. Boxwood do best in well-drained loams in full sun to part shade and do best if soil moisture is consistent (a good layer of mulch will help). For optimum growth, partly shaded sites that are protected from strong winter winds are best. One of the smallest Boxwoods available, Little Missy slowly grows to a 30-36″ tall mound. Its great shape, small stature, and extreme resistance to Boxwood blight give Little Missy top marks in every comparison trial of Boxwoods around the country. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TimberPine","offers":[{"title":"#2","offer_id":48249005703417,"sku":"BOXLIT002","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/4435\/9929\/files\/boxwood_littlemissy.jpg?v=1778878562","url":"https:\/\/shop.timberpine.com\/products\/boxwood-little-missy-2","provider":"TimberPine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
