Flat-tery Boxwood 12 Inch Live Plant – Buxus × ‘Flat-tery’ – 3 Gallon Pot

Flat-tery Boxwood (Buxus × ‘Flat-tery’) is a low-growing evergreen ornamental shrub distinguished by its broad, flattened growth habit and attractive green foliage. Unlike more upright boxwood selections, Flat-tery develops a spreading form that makes it especially useful as a groundcover, low landscape accent, or evergreen planting in shaded garden areas.

This distinctive boxwood remains in its juvenile growth phase longer than many other varieties, resulting in fewer seed capsules and an extended period of vegetative growth. Its foliage maintains an appealing green color through winter, adding consistent evergreen texture to woodland-style gardens, shaded borders, and foundation landscapes. The naturally low profile creates a soft, layered appearance when combined with other ornamental shrubs and perennials.

Supplied as one live plant in a 3 gallon nursery pot, with a 12-inch supplier-listed nursery size, Flat-tery Boxwood is well suited to partial shade and well-drained soil. Its low, spreading growth habit makes it an attractive choice for evergreen groundcover plantings, shade gardens, and outdoor containers.
