Sprinter is one of the fastest growing boxwoods in production.
Shear or trim in early spring, just before bud break. Allow to grow out and trim once or twice more through the season.
When trimming, avoid cutting into thick stems – prune to shape only.
Yellowing on leaf margin may indicate a micronutrient deficiency; use fertilizers that contain micronutrients to avoid.
Spider mites, scale, and aphids are most common pests – treat according to your IPM protocol.
Use good sanitation to eliminate spread of leaf spots and fungal diseases.
