Petite Pillar Boxwood
Buxus sempervirens 'MonAlex'
Petite Pillar Boxwood (Buxus sempervirens 'MonAlex') is a slow-growing, narrow columnar cultivar of boxwood that typically reaches a height of 2-3 feet and a width of only 1-2 feet at maturity. Its evergreen foliage is glossy and dark green, with leaves that are small and tightly packed on the branches, giving it a dense and uniform appearance. This cultivar is an excellent choice for formal garden settings, hedges, or as a vertical accent in narrow spaces. It requires minimal pruning to maintain its shape and is relatively low maintenance, preferring well-drained soil and partial to full sun exposure. Petite Pillar Boxwood is also highly resistant to boxwood blight and other common boxwood diseases, making it a reliable and durable choice for gardeners.
