Boxwood Hedges

Boxwood hedges can tolerate a wide range of soil types but prefer well-draining soils that are slightly acidic. Proper watering is essential for maintaining healthy growth, as boxwood shrubs can be prone to drought. Pruning is also necessary for maintaining shape and size, especially in formal gardens. When pruning boxwood hedges it is important to use sharp shears and avoid cutting into the old wood as this can lead to disease or death of the plant. Additionally, boxwood hedges should be fertilized once or twice a year to ensure proper growth and prevent disease. <br><br>
