Smooth-margined, narrow-elliptic leaves (to 3\/4\" long) are glossy dark green. Foliage may acquire bronze tones in winter. Small, somewhat inconspicuous, apetulous, greenish-cream flowers in terminal and axillary clusters bloom in April and May. Genus name comes from an old Latin name. Common name of boxwood is in reference to the prior use of the wood to make boxes. Another theory on common name is that the name is in reference to young plant stems which are quadrangular (square box cross section).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"MainContentPlaceHolder_ProblemsRow\" class=\"row\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bountiful","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47059023003817,"sku":null,"price":119.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0514\/8606\/4809\/files\/0E21C967-5D10-4EE6-AB00-7BAA84152609.jpg?v=1780882162","url":"https:\/\/rollingridgenursery.com\/products\/boxwood-green-mountain-std-3","provider":"Rolling Ridge Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
