Buxus microphylla 'Bulthouse' USPP 25,896

 

Sprinter® Boxwood earns its name through exceptional vigor, establishing itself as one of the fastest-growing boxwoods currently available—some specimens reportedly doubling in size within a single season. This Winter Gem derivative combines hardy zone 5 resilience with attractive year-round evergreen foliage and a naturally upright growth pattern ideal for hedge development. Reaching 2–4 feet at maturity, it demands minimal pruning beyond light shaping and adapts seamlessly to sun or shade conditions. Whether anchoring foundation plantings, framing entryways in containers, or defining borders in traditional garden schemes, this low-maintenance cultivar delivers reliable structure and refined aesthetics.
