Boxwoods – Best Time To Prune
Q: I need to severely prune several ten-foot-tall English boxwoods. When is the best time to do this?
A: You can do light pruning now but the best time for severe pruning would be in early March, just before new growth begins. Warming temperatures then will stimulate dormant buds to sprout new leaves and cover the plant with greenery.
