Due to the recent discovery of the spotted lanternfly in South Carolina, California has restricted the shipment of plants from SC as well as 15 other states in which the spotted lanternfly had already been found. It was found over 100 miles from Nurseries Caroliniana, but the whole state has been put under quarantine until a treatment protocol can be worked out to resume shipments to California. Authorities hope that this can be accomplished by the end of the month.

Fred's Upright Japanese Boxwood. This distinctly fastigiate growth habit of this selection of Japanese Boxwood was in the garden of Fred Hooks, Marietta, GA. It may be an established cultivar, but we don't know for sure. If you know what it might be, please let us know. It has the same great attributes of the species, tough, sun or shade, disease resistance and lends itself to shearing. As one can see from the picture, it can get quite tall. Fred is at least 6'5". When grown in full sun, it is much tighter in its growth habit. The last picture is an example of what we ship.
