The Glencoe Boxwood is one of the most reliable cold-resistant boxwoods we have seen. It grows steadily into a broad oval mound, reaching 3 to 4 feet tall and up to 5 feet wide. It is densely branched and clipped well into hedges or globes, or it can be grown naturally for a more informal mounded look. The small, glossy, dark-green foliage keeps its color all year round, without bronzing or yellowing. It is extremely cold resistant, and a top choice for cold zones. It grows just as well in warmer areas, and it is one of the very best round boxwoods available.
The Glencoe Boxwood will grow in a wide range of light conditions, from full sun to light full shade. It grows well in any well-drained soil, and it benefits from richer soil and regular fertilizer. Pests and diseases are rarely important issues, and this plant is easy to grow and an excellent way to build structure and form in your garden.
