Location – Partial to full sun and away from heavy drainage areas. For planting on a hedge row plant 1.5 to 2 feet apart.
When to Plant – Plant when temperatures are cooler such as late fall, late winter or in the early spring.
How to Plant – Dig hole twice as wide as the soil ball and same depth as the roots. Using a garden fork, work up the soil and mix an equal amount of compost in. Place Boxwood in the hole and backfill around the hedge with the soil / compost mix. Protect the top by covering with 2-3 inchs of ground cover such as mulch. Water and use a slow release fertilizer with nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, and keep 6 inches away from the base.
