Extremly Cold Hardy & Keeps its Deep Green Color All Year
The velvety green foliage and dense evergreen growth make the Winter Gem the classic hedge plant. Its round shape makes it very versatile, looking natural wherever you plant it.
Consistent Green Color without the Maintenance
The Winter Gem keeps its color year-round… even in the dead of winter. Water regularly when you first plant to establish deep roots. Feed general-purpose fertilizer before new growth appears each spring in a generally sheltered environment.
Thrives in City or Country Side
The Winter Gem works best in full sun to partial shade in any well-drained soil. It grows at a slow rate, but may reach 6 feet in height and spread in its 30-year life span. It’s highly tolerant of urban pollution and most environments, being extremely cold hardy.
