Better Buxus Renaissance
Traditional Buxus or Box can be susceptible to the ravages of Box Moth and more recently, Fungal Box Blight has taken a terrible toll on established trees and hedges. Over the last seven years, breeders have worked hard to create a blight resistant variety and they have been extremely successful, producing three resistant varieties. This one, Renaissance, is low and slow growing, with dark green leaves, making it ideal for hedges.
