You Can Not Go Wrong With Boxwoods!!

I am somewhat of a neat and tidy girl. I think that is what I love about boxwoods. They are so perfectly trimmed and all lined up like little soldiers. I love symmetry and they are often used in pairs. They just fit the bill for me.

There is nothing prettier to me than a well trimmed lawn with a walkway bordered by boxwood. They look clean and fresh.

I think even two on the side of the door makes for a beautiful entry.



There are so many uses for boxwoods, some simple and some elaborate.


This is one of my all time favorite entries. I would have the door painted high gloss black and a black and white striped rug. The containers for the boxwood would be white. You know me with my black and white, I have to have it!!!

Some are simple.......




Some are elaborate...........

This planter is bordered by boxwood, it looks as if it is ready for new plantings.






This is such a clever use of boxwood. Obviously this bench was constructed to accomodate the boxwood. Something to think about!



Another use of boxwood with benches.

Do you all love boxwoods as much as I do? Where do you have your boxwood planted?
