The foliage of Korean Boxwood is a little more enlongated than round.

Why? Anything distinctly special with var Koreana?

What does the bark look like? Harlandii has a much more aged looking bark than say buxus sempervens.

Korean boxwood (buxus microphylla var. koreana, or Buxus Sinica)) is one of, if not the hardiest boxwood varieties--hardy to zone 5.

This looks like one to me and I've got several.

Hardy to zone 4, they sell a ton of them up here.

Four...five...once you get below six, it's all just plain COLD

We are damn cold, but north of us it is f$&*ing cold.

Mark can you give me info on my recent elm thread ? Thx.
