After the mass boxwood planting under the Linden trees earlier this Summer , I ended up with two very small (1#) Green Mountain Boxwoods that were leftover from the project. When I started with that mass planting, I was using a mix of Green Mountain and Green Velvet. After some hemming-and-hawing, I ended up planting only Green Velvet - mostly due to their smaller mature size. So, these two Green Mountain boxwoods have been siting around and I was able to get to planting them in the border around the fire pit in back. See below for their location. A few notes on these - in relation to my task list for the growing season: 1. #1 on my 2023 to-do list was to focus on evergreens . Add two more to the planting list. I planted five new evergreens in front . A columnar Scotch Pine in back . And now 13 more ( 11 + 2) Boxwoods. That's 18 evergreen shrubs and one tree - 19 in total. Pretty good. 2. #15 on my 2023 to-do list...
