We are very excited to see Little Plants cultivars included in the search for a Box Blight solution here in the United States and abroad in public gardens, private homes, and historic properties.
Here in the US, Martha Stewart selected Buxus microphylla 'Little Mister' for a new hedge at her home Bedford Farm in Katonah, New York.
You can follow the progress there at

The original boxwood parterre of The President's Garden on the grounds of the Luxembourg Palace in Paris, France were placed there by Marie de'Medici in the 1600s and are a national treasure, but they have been feeling the threat of Box Blight. In early 2025, work began to replace the existing infected plants with Buxus microphylla 'Little Missy' to preserve the historic garden space as Marie envisioned.
