Buxus microphylla 'Faulkner'
Japanese box
Faulkner is a small leaved Buxus shrub. This broadly bushy shrub with fresh green olive leaves lends itself particularly well to block and spherical shapes or hedges. The Buxus grows slightly faster in the beginning than the sempervirens, afterwards he also grows more slowly. Does well in almost any well-permeable soil and well in full sun or partial shade or shade.
