Care Considerations

The Wintergreen Boxwood (Buxus sinica var. insularis ‘Wintergreen’) outperforms other boxwood varieties in New York because of its superior cold-hardiness and its strong genetic ability to retain vibrant green foliage without taking on harsh winter bronzing.  
Why It Excels in NY
    • Deep-Freeze Tolerance: NY spans USDA Hardiness Zones 3 through 7. The Wintergreen Boxwood is a Korean variety that reliably withstands bitter, freezing temperatures dropping as low as -10° F. 
    • Winter Color Retention: Other popular boxwoods (like ‘Winter Gem’ or ‘Green Velvet’) frequently turn a yellowish-bronze in freezing temperatures. The ‘Wintergreen’ is specially bred to keep a lush, attractive, medium-green color year-round in northern climates. 
    • Disease & Pest Resistance: It naturally shows strong resistance to common boxwood pests and blights that can plague NY landscapes. 
    • Adaptable to Desiccation: NY winters feature harsh winds that can dry out boxwood foliage. Because the Wintergreen variety doesn’t fully go dormant and continues slow metabolic activity, its resilient cellular structure minimizes moisture loss (desiccation) compared to weaker, southern varieties.  

Optimal Care for NY Winters
To ensure your shrubs thrive year-round, follow these local care practices:
  • Strategic Placement: Plant them in sheltered areas, such as the north or east side of a house or structure, to block freezing NY winds and shield them from the dehydrating winter sun.  
  • Deep Watering: Before the ground freezes completely in late fall, ensure the plants get a deep, thorough watering. These charges the root system to help the plant survive the long, dry winter. 
  • Mulching: Add a 2 to 3-inch layer of mulch around the base to insulate the roots from extreme temperature swings, which are highly common in the Northeast.  
  • Avoid Southern Exposures: Do not plant them too close to south-facing brick walls, as temperature fluctuations during the NY winter thaws can trick the plant into waking up too early
