This compact, heat-tolerant evergreen is easy to care for and makes a great border, low hedge, or foundation planting. Unlike some boxwood, it is disease resistant and carefree. Little pruning is needed, but if you want to shape it, we recommend doing so after its first flush of new spring growth. Pyracomeles Berry Box® is a Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrub.
