Re: Buxus

Sorry Nancy, don't know the species, but many box leaves here in Britain (where box is native) do have a little notch at the tip of the leaf. 
Cheers, Rowan.

Ron I checked all my Boxwood varieties and none of them show an indented apex in the leaf! I would question that this plant is indeed a Boxwood. Although both are opposite the English, Asian, Japanese, Korean and Swedish Boxwoods all have a pointed apex.

Does anyone recognize this boxwood? It is a very pretty plant with rarely any problems with drought or heat but needs a name. 
Thank you,
