It is tolerant of coastal environments, moderate frost, and short periods of dry once established. “Silver Box” is commonly included in a mixed planting, included in a cottage garden, maintained in a container, trimmed into a low hedge, planted around outdoor living areas such as pools, or mass planted for a lovely display. The versatility and attractiveness of this plant makes it very popular.
