Boxwood NewGen™ Freedom®

Beautiful, glossy green foliage adorns this relatively vigorous, rounded boxwood that is slightly taller than wide. The habit of NewGen Freedom® is more uniform and tighter than ‘Wintergreen’ or ‘Winter Gem’ making it an excellent choice for formal and residential landscapes. Deer resistant!

NewGen Freedom® is an excellent boxwood. It was selected due to its good resistance to boxwood blight with proper care and resistance to boxwood leafminer. Its vigor helps it create an attractive plant quicker than many cultivars but it also makes yearly or twice-yearly pruning a must. NewGen Freedom®, like many other boxwood cultivars, has a tendency to bronze in winter, especially if in full sun and/or unprotected exposure.
