Buxus microphylla 'Bulthouse'
Choose Sprinter® Boxwood if you want a boxwood hedge or foundation line to fill in faster than tighter dwarf types; the tradeoff is more pruning to keep it crisp and compact.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B+ | It gives clean evergreen structure, especially in rows, but it is not a showy focal shrub. |
| Growth Rate | B+ | It fills in faster than many boxwoods, but patience is still needed for a finished hedge. |
| Maintenance | B | It responds well to pruning, but it needs regular shaping if you want a tight formal line. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Boxwood is one of the most deer-resistant shrubs we grow; its foliage deters browsing, though no plant is fully immune. |
| Small Space Fit | B | It can work in smaller beds with pruning, but tighter dwarf boxwoods are easier where space is limited. |
| Screening Value | B | It is useful for low privacy and structure, but it is not the plant for tall screening. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Sprinter® Boxwood when the customer wants a boxwood hedge sooner, not when they want a plant they can ignore for years.

They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
